Cougle Family Vacation 2014


Another annual (except for last year, when Rachel was pregnant and I was sicccccccccccck so we decided to cancel) is in the books!  We were so fortunate to be able to spend the weekend at the cabin we stayed at two years ago - a family friend of the Cougans - and it was just as relaxing and fun as it was the last time!

We got on the road at nap time, which worked out perfectly!  Ben slept pretty much the entire way there.


Upon arrival, Ben spotted a big dump truck on the front porch - SCORE!  He had about a zillion trucks and cars to play with all weekend - it was pretty much all he did the 48 hours that we were there.


On Friday evening after we made dinner, we took a walk down to the water and Ben and Greg enjoyed throwing some rocks in.




The rest of our time there was spent eating, snacking drinking, lounging, hanging on the porch, going for walks/runs and for some of us, runs up the hill carrying a boulder - Peter is such a caveman when he works out ;)

I think my favorite part of the trip (aside from spending time with the people I love) was being entirely disconnected from our phones.  It was refreshing to not have anything to check (mostly out of habit) and it's something I'm trying to incorporate more into my daily life at home.
