A cabin on the lake

We headed up to the Knight's cabin on Lake Wenatchee in Leavenworth last weekend. 6 couples and 7 kids under the age of 5. Total choas, right? Nope. It was one of those weekends with the perfect balance of relaxation, kid time, friend time, and adult fun. We packed up Friday afternoon and headed out shortly after our goal time of 5 pm. Made it up there just in time to feed the girl and put her to bed before enjoying some of Colleen's delicious gumbo and some cocktails.

We spent Saturday alternating between playing, eating, napping, chatting, reading, and staring out at the gorgeous scenery. Saturday night was a little more subdued but no less entertaining with our marathon game of Taboo.

Sloane and Heidi played. Actually, Sloane just grabbed every toy that Heidi picked up. We need to work on our sharing.

The boys did some creative writing with their dominos. Lucy was thrilled.

We are so lucky to have such a wonderful group of friends and I find myself smiling when I think of our kids growing up together. It's pretty cool.

Great pics! Once again I failed to capture the excellence of that weekend on camera, thanks for doing so. We too look forward to (another) lifetime of these sorta weekends. BTW: that pic of Sloane posing, too great... oh boyeh.
