Good morning and happy monday! It was such a beautiful weekend up here and since I didn't have to work, it was the first weekend in awhile that we really got to explore camp together! By Friday most of the snow melted and the sun was shining! Warm enough to wear a t-shirt! So Saturday we got up and went for a little hike. The forest starts right behind our house so off we went! We ran into an old dirt fire road and followed that until the snow kept us from going any farther. I found the fattiest pine cones I've ever seen! It totally blows my mind how many amazing and beautiful places we have right outside our door. I'm so excited for all the hiking and exploring that's in store for us as the weather continues to warm up and the land thaws out...
We spent the rest of the day working on stuff around the house, Aaron is building a coffee table out of a tree log and I'm working on repainting some furniture for our place! I'll definitely have to put up some before and after pix when we're all done.
That afternoon they opened up the snack shop (little fast food place next to the lake that serves burgers, fries, and shakes during summer). So we rode bikes down there and enjoyed dinner right next to the water along with a bunch of other staffers and their families. There are so many little ones here and it was entertaining seeing them running around and playing on the grass by the water. I think it was a tiny taste of what summer will be like...minus the hundreds and hundreds of screaming kids! haha
Yesterday we drove into Fresno and began our search for a sofa. Quite a draining experience. Aaron was done after the 3rd furniture store. It seems finding one we agree on, that will fit in our very small space, and that's still in our price range is going to be harder than we anticipated. But I'm not sure how much longer we can survive without one! When you're friends come over to watch a movie and can barely get through it because of back spasms and losing feeling in their legs due to sitting on the floor it's time to get a sofa!!! Not to mention, Aaron sat down in his lawn chair on Friday and it basically collapsed into a pile of twisted metal, so we are down to uno. Good news though! We did find the perfect stools for our table we got at World Market a couple weeks ago. So now we can at least eat like civilized people! Moving up in the world I tell ya...
So here's a few pix from our weekend, enjoy!
bikes!
so fun!














These pics are amazing...I think you could make a calendar and sell it..I'd buy it! Can't wait for our visit in May to get filled with some of this beauty you get everyday!
