Shipley Cabin

So we took a weekend off and headed up to the Shipley's cabin in Idaho for a weekend away. The boys had a GREAT time playing in the creek, chasing the dog, pretending to ride the 4-wheelers, building forts, and playing dress up. I think it was heaven for almost all involved.
Kent and Tyse went on a 6 mile hike and tyse made it most of the way on his own. He stepped foot back into the cabin with his eyes mostly closed and collapsed on the nearest chair into a nap that lasted for quite a while. He said that hiking is one of his favorite things to do and asks every day if this is a hiking day! He even picked me a beautiful flower...


The hikers went swimming in a swimming hole that is located on the way to a spring. No one told tyse how cold it was... just that he should jump in. So he took the plunge with dad...

The facial expression is priceless!

Is Kent still abusing his kid? J/K, it looks fun! Avalyn sure misses her best bud, Tyse.
