a weekend at the cabin is worth a month in the city

Last weekend we stayed at my family's cabin. 

There are a few things you should keep in mind when visiting the cabin: 

1. Everything should be looked at through, and only through, binoculars. 
2. In order to adhere to rule #1, the binoculars should be with you at all times. 
3. You can try your best at the horseshoe/ski ball game outside but Sam will still win. 
4. Do you still have the binoculars? Good. 

Staying at the cabin is probably the best way to spend the weekend known to mankind.

I agree! Our family has a cabin up in Montana, and it is our favorite vacation every summer:) and playing horse shoes is a must!

This sounds so good right now. But at least I get to see my husband this weekend even if it isn't at a cabin in the pretty mountains.
p.s. way to rock the scarf/headband :)

I totally stayed at a cabin last week too! The only bad part was the mosquito bites. But goodness, I loved the nature!

Looks like you had a fabulous weekend! I'm glad you got a chance to relax, unwind and enjoy nature up at the cabin!

I have to agree. I'd rather stay in the country at a cabin in the city.
Looks like you had fun. Love the keep in mind list!!

Cabins are awesome! My inlaws have one and I agree it is the absolute best way to recharge after spending an extended period, at home, in the city. Glad to see that you and Hubs were able to step away from "real life" and catch your breath for awhile.

Sam, you sooo rock that headband/wrap thingy! :) and the cabin sounds and LOOKS gorgeous! And binoculars! :D I was obsessed with those when I was little. I was so fascinated that they made stuff HUGE-lookin'!

Hahah and way to pwn at ski-ball! ;D
