My uncle Dave reserves his companies work cabin every fall for conference weekend. When we were younger we used to sleep over Saturday night then watch conference with the whole family on Sunday. Now that we all have kids, we go up Sunday morning and have lunch together then watch conference. This year it was raining. The rain made all of the leaves more brilliant then ever. You could see about every color on a paint pallet as you looked out over the valley of Midway from the cabin. It was beautiful.
The kids all had a wonderful time. They got a little muddy and they found this HUGE chocolate lab that was wandering up on the mountain side. Of course they all wanted to find its owner. They brought the dog up on the deck and the thing was as big as a bear.
The kids also enjoyed catching wasps that were in the window seals of the cabin. My cousins little boy has a bee catcher gun that sucks the bees into the barrel of the gun then it spits them back out into little storage hive. It's pretty interesting and the kids are fasinated with it. It comes to the cabin EVERY year. Hadlie, of course, was enjoying the toy and got stung. They caught well over 20 wasps....CRAZY KIDS!

What a cool tradition! I think I'll have to suggest something like that for my family. Sounds like a blast!
