Cabin...Fever?

Ahhh the cure of the fever, enjoying family time at the cabin. I had heard that my two brothers and their families had gone up for a few days. My little brother, Tony, was on his way to join them so I decided to hitch a ride and tag along. So Friday night we arrived around 10:30pm just in time to catch the end of their movie. Scott and Heather and their 5 sweeties, and Ben and Karen and their 5 cuties needed some Auntie Rhondi time! (The little ones only know their Aunt Shanda, so I needed to teach them my name too)

This cabin is about 2 hours from Phx, in the cool mountains!

Jake and Riley get the first ride

First thing Sunday morning, Tony and I head back to town. A short visit, but some good times. Since it was dark on the drive up, I didn't get to take in the familiar scenery that I've come to love. The Beeline Hwy is a well traveled route in our family. It's amazing how I feel like I know each of these mountains as if they have watched me grow up.

Cactus for the kids to see.

Sugar Loaf Mountain, where we would take our 3 wheelers many years ago.

Fountain Hills--The fountain always goes off at the top of the hour and last for 15 mins. We would always look for this fountain.
