The fun just keeps on coming!

As GKC 2015 ended, we still had family time ahead!
Charlotte made a new friend who was visiting our neighbors. 
They loved the hot tub!
The tree house has been revived again.
Jack, Mitchell and Charlotte spent a night there, in thunder storms.
They stayed dry. Good job Tree House Masters!
Our neighbors invited us over to shoot.
We discovered his artistic ability when he put up the targets.
.22, .38, 9mm, .40  WOW!
When we all thought the fun was over, he brought out a bow!
Check out that form!
"You really know how to show a girl a good time" --
and 3 of her kids and her parents!
And it was still not over. While the burgers were cooking,
a bear target appeared in the forest for the boys to shoot.
Thank you neighbors for letting us shoot at your house!
Ummm.. well... you know what we mean.
Apparently, there is a project down the mountain that required pallets and workers to travel by 4-wheeler. 
Preparing for the arrival of our son-in-law and Holly's return from her Grande Canyon trip.
Lovin' the Fourth of July.
Minor repairs were made to the little 4-wheeler.
It has traveled hundreds of miles in the last five weeks.
Some tree trimming required a fire and as soon as we had a dry day with no wind, swoosh!
All done.
We started Charlotte's birthday off with waffles.
Then presents.
And a cake. She wanted to light her own candles.
Whatever you want birthday girl!
John arrived in time to help bottle the wine.
Corking. Thank you, John.
In the wine cellar. And now we wait.
My daughter and I completed our chalk paint project.
Thank you you, Crissy!
And now it's time to say "Goodbye" at Sunport in ALB.
😢 It is way too quiet here in the mountains after the best five weeks of our year!
Thank you, kids and grands for your logistical planning and making it happen.
We are ready to do it all again when you are.
We love you all.
