Beaver's Bend - Vacation Days 4-6












We made it to our final destination about 2pm on Wednesday. Beaver's Bend was like nothing I've ever seen, it's beautiful! The cabin and camping area reminded me a lot of Red River. We stayed in a cabin called Dale's Little Peace of Heaven.....it was definitely that!!! We spent the days hiking and boating and the evenings around the campfire making smores or in the hot tub (the boys away).






The boys also went on their first horseback ride. They loved it and were disappointed when they couldn't ride a second time. We also went canoeing and paddleboat riding. There is so much to do there, that we didn't get to do everything. It was a lot of fun.






As for the dogs, Maddie is the swimmingest dog you'll ever see. She stayed in the water as long as we did. She just swam around and fetched her tennis ball. Reagan on the other hand, just jumped in to get wet then sunbathed on the boat. They both seemed to enjoy the boat rides.






We should've booked the whole week, we know that for next time. There are so many pictures, I'm going to put them in an online album, but here are a few!!

Vacation - Day 3 - Cedar Creek Lake













We spent vacation days 2 & 3 at Cedar Creek Lake. Memaw and Gary went out on the boat with us last night, but I couldn't find the camera. I found it this morning and we got some good pics. Toby attempted wake boarding and Scout water skiing. Neither had much success, but we'll continue trying throughout the week.




The dogs loved the water. Maddie played a game of catch with the boys in the lake. Reagan mainly jumped in to get wet and then sun bathed on the deck. As for me, it was just down right hot! I couldn't decide which pictures to put on, so there are a lot. The boys were wiped from hours on the lake, so they slept on the way home.


We get up early in the morning to begin our Day 4 journey to the cabin! I'm looking forward to it so we can set up my hammock and I can read while they hike!
