Short but SUPER worthwhile trip to the Shack!

We spent Saturday morning exploring together. The boys were so fun together. They are so so busy!
In front of the play house Grandpa built them.

David spent the whole week with Grandm and Grandpa. He was SO SO SO good for them. They said he is so funny, has the best memory, and was just a great little boy the whole week. We are so proud of him.

Cool Kid!

The boys have found their favorite corner at the shack. There is a patch of dirt under the screen porch that entertains them - they play trucks in there for long periods of time.

Looks like TROUBLE to me!

Mikko playing on the hill. He was trying to figure out how to roll down it like David does.

Busy guy exploring everywhere!

Foxy loves the river. It was the shallowest I've ever seen it. She could barely make it up the riverbank after going down for a drink.

Funny!

The guys.

The boys occupied themselves for about a half an hour picking up little apples and putting them in the dump truck. Then they would haul them over to the feeders for the deer.

Playing together SO well.

Well - playing together so well MOST of the time : )

Dumping his load at the deer feeders.

It was just the most absolutely perfect weather for the Shack. Still summer, with a fall feel.

Typical scene. Boys playing and the dogs wrestling in the background.

We spent Saturday afternoon 4-wheeling and the boys helped Grandpa with some jobs.

Picking up birch bark for winter fires. David and Mikko LOVED helping Grandpa in the woods.

Mikko would follow Grandpa into the woods - so cute.

David was helping pick up birch bark. He was even carrying it in his mouth.

Grandma even went for a ride!

Mikko was so sad when he'd be left behind. Here he is waiting at one of the trails for Daddy and David to come back on the 4-wheeler. We couldn't leave this spot because this is where they entered the woods. So cute.

We took a long ride Saturday afternoon. Stopping for a rest and some refreshments.

Here is Grandpa teaching David all about nature!

David got a new camera and would follow Mikko around taking his picture.

Jimmy and Foxy in doggy heaven! They were pooped out on the way home.

We spent a super fun weekend at the Shack. Fall is coming and we can't wait for more weekends at our favorite place! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for being SO good to the boys.
