We went up to the cabin this weekend just for the sake of getting out of town. The weather turned out great and we were able to be outdoors while there.
Derek took his gun as well as the one he got me for Christmas a few years back. It was pretty cool. I had never shot anything but a pellet gun. The kids loved it too. Xavier hit the can causing it to explode. That was pretty awesome considering he couldn't really aim and had to have help holding the gun.

Two of Dereks friends came with us. One with his wife and two kids. It was nice for our kids to have other kids to play with. They seem to fight less. We got there Friday night around 9 and had a campfire letting the kids stay up until after midnight. That left everyone tired the next day. But we still got out and took a walk, shot the guns and had another fire for most of the day. Derek and Alexandra spent some time trying to master Guitar Hero on Andy's XBOX. Overall it was a great weekend and we hope to go again soon.
