Last Friday (on Jeff's 33rd birthday) we took off around noon for a family weekend getaway at Beaver's Bend State Park in Broken Bow, OK. We've heard about the place for years but this was our first trip to the area. We arrived at our cabin around 2:30 and the other Hutchison Four were right behind us. The drive from Paris to Broken Bow was so beautiful!
Jeff enjoyed making fun of my tree picture taking most of the way :-) But the fall colors were too pretty! We spent a couple of hours checking it all out while we waited on Gramps and Nana. The cabin was so beautiful and perfect for us!
Right behind the house is a covered patio with a fireplace, grill and hot tub.
Excited kiddos!
These Big Foot statues were placed throughout the woods and we walked over to one behind our cabin. Nana and Gramps arrived at dinner time and we started the grill and fireplace for burgers, hot dogs and s'mores!
Big Helpers ;-)
We sat around the fire for hours both nights and we had indoor fun too. We watched movies, drank cocoa and played so many board games over the weekend.
The kids call Kinley Ms. Pretty :-)
And the kids LOVED the air hockey upstairs.
Nana and Gramps cooked a yummy breakfast both mornings.
We headed into the park for a couple of hours on Saturday. It was too cold to canoe or fish but Gramps treated us to a train ride around one part of the park.
How cute is Aunt Kara in the pic?!
Ava thought she was so cool wearing Gramps' gloves that afternoon.
We headed back after lunch and while the kids took naps we took turns going on nature walks. Then we parked ourselves in front of a giant fire for hours ;-)
We had such an amazing time at this beautiful place! A HUGE thank you to Nana and Gramps for treating us to a perfect cabin. We have an incredible family and I'm so thankful for the quality time we were able to spend together.
