Great for you! I have almost done that a time or two but the timing was just not right. We are looking to maybe get some Arkansas land in the mountains soon. Good for you again, hope you use it a lot!

thank you...


oh we will believe me... when we go out there in the next month... I know we just got it... but we have to PLAN... lol.... 4 kids in a cabin we have to be prepared!!!! lol...


I will be sure and get pics so I can show off my new weekend get away...

I was talking to hubby about an annual thing where all of the CLOSE girlfriends leave the kids home with the hubbys and we gals just go out there... hang out by the water... in the pool that isin the community, sip on some wine... live life to the fullest with NO kids and NO hubby's to rejuvinate our minds BODIES and souls!!!

He was amazingly OPEN to it... thought it was a great IDEA... so long as he gets the chance to do it with the guys... hahah... we will see about that!!! neener neener!!!

hahha.... kinda already thought about that...

I was just not going to say anything... hahaha

however to day was NOT the day to go to the lake it was so YUCKY... man alive if was muddy and murky... that is why there is no photos of our trip today... I took my camera but no time and really nothing to photograph...

the cabin will sleep about 6 comfortably...there is a bedroom, living room and there is a fold out sofa... and then a loft... (thinking um air matress) this will be the kids hide out!!!! however I can rent a cabin next next door for 40.00 a night... to accomodate more people if need be....

hahahah man the WHEELS are running now... my hubby says that he better be able to go with me... at least once and awhile... hahah I have been making plans for the place already... and anual gals only, now the TPF things... he is wondering who's cabin it is and if he just needs to go buy himself one!!!!! lmao

oh yeah... they are opening up a new section in the community.. and we have first DIBS on PURACHASING property and building a house on the land before the general public knows that it is up for sale...

Hubs and I are entertaining the fact...cool thing is... if we do buy property to for either, weekend vacation home or to live there... the money that we put into the cabin... will go towards the cost of the land... YEAH!!!
