BEST (and first) Fall Break EVER! Part 2

I apologize in advance. This is another super long post but I wanted to show everyone the pictures. First off, here's the "cabin" we stayed at. It is huge!It comes complete with an upper pond and hot tub. The water was FREEZING! We jumped in off the dock and then ran to the hot tub to get warm. Fun but cold. We also we canoeing on the lower pond. That's where the boys were moving the rocks.

Here's a view of the house and surrounding area. Lots of pasture land.

And here's a side view of the house. Now for the fun part, the rooms. This was ours. We were in the Ranch House. So we basically had our own apartment in the basement. Complete with living room and kitchen. Next is the theater room. Those couches were so comfy. We watched a lot of movies. I totally recommend "North and South". The British movie, not civil war series. It's long, but great.

Waking up Nic. We wanted to explore.
The house had so much detail. Each room had a different theme. I just loved this tub. But I have to admit this one is pretty awesome. And the faucets that went with it were pretty sweet.

This is the bear room. The head boards are so fun but the beds themselves were really narrow. This is the bunk house.
The best part of this room was the loft with all the toys.

As you can see we had a lot of fun.
There was also a window that overlooked the walkway. Karl and Nic had fun trying to shoot me. And I have to admit I ambushed them a bit too.
And Nic started modeling the bison hide for us.
This is the entry way. Notice all the wood? I got to help stack all the rooms to prepare for winter. It was fun, but there are a lot of fireplaces in that house. (And I look like a ghost in the picture. Could I be any whiter?)
Besides the hikes, exploring, watching movies, helping out, and hanging in the hot tub we also blew fire! It was a little scary, the first time I tried I about inhaled it. That wouldn't have been good, but I learned the next time around. This last picture is just a beautiful sunrise. It was like the perfect end to the perfect trip. Thanks Yarringtons!
