Lots of lake time

Be patient as there are lots of pictures with this post. Too many to choose from. That is what I get for waiting so long in between posts. We have not ventured far from Priest this summer. We did manage to visit a couple other lakes to see some friends. In between that we have had many visitors up here at our cabin. The pictures explain some of the highlights of our time up here the past couple weeks. The end of summer is near & I am sad. How I will miss my favorite season and living at the lake.

Doesn't this say summer?

Grandma's birthday present

3rd annual "FLIP FLOP LEMON DROP" party at the Pool's cabin. Hosted by the Shannon & Teri Pool as a fund raiser for Priest Lake EMT.


The bar & some of the ladies

"hammer head" game....harder than it looks

Shannon strutting her stuff/flip flops down the cat walk for the judges.
The "flower" girls doing their thing to sway the judges.
Juanita....love her.
More huckleberry picking. This has been the best year up here for picking in a long time.
Showing off some of her hucks.
Eating rather than putting in the bucket.

Love this picture of Ravenna "kicking back" & Hudson blowing bubbles.
Baby "Demo" or Delaney comes to visit.

Delaney loves chairs....she is so stinkin cute.

My dad had some of his old Mead High football coaching staff up to the cabin with their families. Such a fabulous bunch of people. Always guaranteed fun with this group.

Luke introducing Hudson to Legos. He is now hooked. Why so many little, tiny pieces???

Thank goodness for this big porch. We were able to be outside even during all the rain.
The Russell triplets, Luke, Riley Jo& Toryn


Dad & his sister Aunt Joan caught in a down pour doing some light chores....moving dock logs.
