We headed up to the cabin at the end of August for one more fun weekend before summer ended. It was another scorcher and well over 100 degrees in the valley so it was once again a nice respite from the heat. We arrived late Saturday night and put the kids straight to bed. On Sunday I went for a miserable run and then we headed to Hume Lake with los Abuelos. We ate lunch and then played in the lake. Emmett loves everything about water and Clarita had a ton of fun playing with the floating logs. They were both sad to leave.

We got back and played on the horsey swing and took turns pulling the wagon and played outside. The kids were filthy at the end and ready for a bath before dinner. We had dinner with los Abuelos and Phil stopped by to say hi before they headed home.

Monday we headed to the Giant Forest, and I don't think I had been there since I was little. The kids had a blast running around through the trees. Clara was obsessed with taking pictures of us which meant Emmett wanted to as well. Emmett walked for probably mile and I thought I might finally be done carrying kids, but then he asked to go in the backpack. We saw lots of amazing trees, and even a few deer! We headed back and took naps before eating dinner and heading back down to the heat. It was another great weekend!
