Cobblers at the Cabin! (long post)

Thank you so much sister Jana! you are the hostess with the mostest!!

Cobbler Joyce and Beth weren't able to come..we sure missed them!

we all had a great productive fun time!! and probably shouldn't eat for a week!

 I have loved this drive in to the cabin ever since i was a little girl.
it changes with every season...

 uncle Doodles/auntie Marys storage area with grandpas sign from a past business.
Marys and Pats cabins are a couple doors down from Janas...

I'm here!!

Jana has the fire all ready and kept it going all weekend..

  a little sewing before the others arrive!

 up in the loft in front of the bedroom..
this was our grandparents rocker and bench,
a perfect place to sit and look out at the lake.

everyone's here and a few gifts for the hostess!
