Fun, Friends and Family!

The last two weekends have been full of fun, friends and family!

For the second year in a row, in September we have gone to Greenbluff to wine taste, pick blackberries and get pumpkin doughnuts. Here we are with our blackberries, they were delicious! I took them in to school to share with my sixth graders for snack, they loved them!


Last weekend we went to the Kevin and Grace's Family cabin on Pend O'reille River. I love going to this cabin for so many reasons: it is so comfy, beautiful and inviting, it is in the middle of the forest but right next to the river, and the company there is always the best!







We went for a four mile walk along the RR tracks to a train bridge, sadly we didn't see a train. But the walk was nice and refreshing.
My brother, Andrew and his girlfriend, Becca came up for the weekend (Oct18-19). On Sunday, we took them to Greenbluff and we got to see the pumpkin cannon for the first time, which is so impressive (it goes a lot higher than I thought it would!), then we went and bought candy from the Ellie's Candy Shoppe, it is to die for, everything was so good! Then we went to the Harvest House for lunch and bought Pumpkin Doughnuts for Conn's parents(we had some too!:). There was a big festival going on with lots of vendors and music, and hay rides. I didn't get to go on a hayride, but I want to next year! :) It was such a beautiful fall day, I can't get over how perfect the weather was!

On our way home we passed Cat Tales, my brother being the cat enthusiast that he is asked if we could go, and it was pretty awesome to see these big, strong animals. Andrew signed up for the Big Cat Adventure, he got to feed one of the tigers, pretty awesome! Here is the MGM lion that Cat Tales rescued. Here's to great weekends with great people! Love you all!
