After 4 years of not being able to make it up to Silver Lake, we were FINALLY able to go up with the entire family for the weekend. We went up with Grammy, Grandpa, Uncle Scott, Auntie Kelli, Auntie Missy, Dave and of course all our family...oh and can't forget Carter and Hilda (the dogs). Darin was thrilled to be able to go fishing up there in a boat this year. He has been a fishing machine this year. It did help that Matt, our cousin decided to come and join us up there, which was great to see him and quite the treat. Sydney and Hailey loved being in the cabin and spending time with their cousins and playing games. Hailey especially loved playing with the dog bed that was in grammy and grandpa's room, go figure out of all things. She thought it was a great place to play! We went on a few small hikes which Sydney did really well on but Hailey on the other hand had a different idea. She wasn't interested in walking or being carried in the backpack carrier. She wanted to be carried everywhere we went which explains why we only went on small hikes to the lodge, to the waterfall and just past the waterfall to glass rock. That was far enough for Hailey. At the waterfall the kids raced boats up under the bridge to see who's boat (stick) would finish first. Scott, Darin and Missy always did that when they were young. We also had some surprise visitors on Sunday, Uncle Craig & Aunt Danette came up with their dogs to hike and hang out for a while. We had an awesome weekend up at Silver lake. We always love going up their to smell the fresh mountain air and enjoy the sounds of "True" nature.
