Weekend Trip to Broken Bow Lake-Day 1

Sam and I took the boys for a long weekend trip to Broken Bow Lake in Oklahoma this past weekend. Sam had a VERY limited number of vacation days since he recently started a new job, so this little weekend road trip proved to be the perfect get-away for us. Nana graciously volunteered to keep the little girls since I was still not brave enough to take them on a trip. I know that it would have been doable for Sam and I, I just think it will be alot easier next year when they are 3! The boys soaked up the one on one time with us, and we all had a great time!
We left around 10:00 on Friday, July 4th, and we arrived in Broken Bow around 2:00. We drove around the cute little town, bought some fireworks, and settled into our cabin. Our cabin was perfect! Sam's friend Ron owns the cabin, and he let us use it for the weekend. It was immaculately clean, and decorated just as a cabin in the woods should be! After we had explored the cabin we headed into Broken Bow for a late lunch. We ate at a fun little Mexican restaurant called Papa Poblano's, and we headed to watch the town's firework display. When we were back at the cabin Sam and the boys gathered wood to make a fire, and we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. The boys did sparklers, and Sam shot a few small fireworks. It was really fun to spend the 4th of July in a cozy cabin in the woods nestled in a tiny Oklahoma town! Day 2 to come!! Our cute cabin
