Just about 30 miles above Boise off Hwy 21, down Clear Creek Rd, you'll run across Grimes Creek and some lovely fall colors.
If you'd have been there this weekend and wound down the curvy one lane road, known all the right turns to make, you'd have found our family hanging out at this sweet little cabin in the woods,
It is simple, but tastefully decorated and homey. I could so live in a place like this!
We are rough-it camping people, but thanks to our little guy, this trip included things like hot water, a microwave and a land-line telephone. Mommy might have just gotten spoiled!
The master bedroom in in the loft and has amazing views!
The girls enjoyed the dorm room with bunks.
The weather was nice enough that we got to enjoy the outdoors a good bit and roasting S'mores around a blazing fire,
We had an extra bed and enjoyed having my parents up overnight and for Sunday.
Kaderick loves his Grandma! (and Grandpa.)
I find nothing more calming than fire or rushing water. Even with noise all around, there is stillness, relaxation and worship of the Creator.
My boys enjoyed their toys. Oh, the girls did too. They love hopping on with daddy and exploring.
Kade did really well physically and seemed to enjoy himself.
Love this little cutie, too! She was enjoying the morning sunshine on the second story balcony.
While my parents were there, we had worship together and took some fun pictures that we might be able to use for Christmas cards--I'm saving most of them for later.
We also drove into Idaho City (about 10 miles) and took this piccy of the church there. I love old churches!
We took a few fun pictures of little man too. He was so cute in his little vest and tie.
We had such a great time reading, hiking, eating, playing games and just sitting around chasing Kade around. So thankful we were able to do this--we have so much to be grateful for!
Of course it was a little sad leaving, but we have our memories and more importantly, we still have each other!
