- [Jeremy] And he tripped over these rocks,

and fell on his back.

- You okay?

- [Isaac] Yeah.

- But unfortunately we've already had

a few mishaps with nature.

- So then Elise got bit by a bug or stung by a wasp

or something several times.

- Suddenly I felt a lot of stuff on my back.

- [Kendra] Good morning.

Hi, Janae.

Are you ready to go to the cabin?

Do you wanna go see Grandma and Papa's cabin?

Well, we are packing up for my sister's awesome house

and headed up for our family reunion

with my whole family at the cabin.

It's a little bit of a drive, but it's worth it

because it's gorgeous up in the mountains.

- And now.

- [Kendra] Professional mover of things and children.

All right, Caleb, you ready to go to the cabin?

- Yeah.

- Snickers, you wanna come to?

So we're making one stop on the way outta town.

Any guesses where we're headed?

We're going to Zupa's, again, for lunch today.

When you're only in the same town

as your favorite restaurant, like once or twice a year,

you gotta eat there as many times as you can

while you're in town.

And now we're off to the cabin.

Hey, Laura, what's the matter?

- We left the two big kids.

- [Kendra] We left the two big kids?

- Uh-huh.

- [Kendra] Oh no, where are they?

- They're at Tiffany's house.

- [Kendra] Did we forget?

- Yeah, go find them.

- [Kendra] We gotta go find them?

- Yeah, did we lost them?

- [Kendra] We didn't lose them, and guess what?

Mommy wouldn't forget about them.

They're very important to me.

Guess where they are.

They drove to the cabin with Grandma and Papa.

So they're already up there.

They're waiting for us.

Should we go get them?

Okay, I'm glad you were worried

about your big brother and sister.

You're nice.

Jeremy ordered soup.

- Kendra was like, how are you gonna eat that while driving?

This is how.

- [Kendra] He's drinking his soup.

I don't know if I could do that.

It doesn't taste the same, does it?

- You just get more of it all at once.

(upbeat music)

- So every time we drive this direction,

I want to video the lake, because it's so beautiful.

And every time--

- [Jeremy] Oh there it is, there it is.

- It is not there.

You are joking me.

Anyway, so every corner we keep going around,

I'm like ready with the camera.

And Jeremy keeps making fun of me because

we're not there yet, but I'm scared I'm gonna miss it again.

Look, here it is, here it is, it's coming.

Look, the rocks are pretty.

There it is (laughs).

- [Jeremy] Nailed it.

There's that lake.

- [Kendra] That's what I've been looking to film

every time we're on this drive (laughs).

Oh, say goodbye to the lake, guys.

Now I'm gonna put the camera away.

We'll see you at the cabin.

- [Jeremy] I just wish this road had some orange cones.

(Kendra laughing)

On the outside, so it's like, hey, stay in the--

- Where's the road, we're so confused.

So Isaac and Elise aren't in the car.

Laura is napping, Caleb is watching a show

on the iPad, and Janae's asleep.

It's like a quiet drive, like it's pretty much

like Jeremy and I are alone in this car.

Which is so romantic.

- What are we gonna do?

- [Kendra] We're gonna talk about life.

- Yes.

- Well because we left a little later than we planned,

we are running into some serious traffic, so

Jeremy and I are going to go adventuring.

We're trying a different way.

- [Jeremy] We're gonna beat the traffic.

- Yeah, I don't know but we're gonna keep moving,

which is what's most important for Janae.

(upbeat music)

So little fact about me.

I seriously love finding new ways

to get to the same places that I always go.

I remember distinctly in college that there was

a Wal-Mart that I'd have to go shopping to occasionally,

and I loved to see how many different ways

I could find, like I didn't just wanna take the main road,

like, I'd like to cut through different neighborhoods

and try different side streets,

and it's just really fun for me.

I love traveling and just exploring places

I've never been before, even if it's as simple

as a road in my hometown, so,

anyway, little fact about Kendra.

Oh, and I'm really grateful that I'm married to a guy

that's willing to do it with me.

Because that's awesome.

- Someday, we're gonna apply for the Amazing Race.

- [Kendra] Yes.

- And we're gonna win.

- Yes.

- [Jeremy] A million dollars.

- They should make a new Amazing Race game

that's like, Amazing Race, family version,

you have to do it with your kids.

Because that would be so much harder, and we'd win.

(laughing)

- Yeah.

- [Kendra] We're reaching pine trees.

That means we're getting closer.

(upbeat music)

Laura gave Hunter directions to the cabin,

and she said, you drive and then it's really bumpy.

And then you're there.

- We're here.

- Well we made it to the cabin.

It has been a joyful reunion, and we are settling in

for our first meal while we wait for everybody to arrive

and get this party going.

It's Janae's first time at the cabin.

Hi.

We call this dish Aunt Karen's salad,

and it is delicious.

- [Jeremy] But it was invented by Aunt Susan.

- I don't know if Aunt Karen actually knows

that we have Aunt Karen's salad.

- That we named it after her.

We had this salad at Aunt Karen's house one time, and, oop!

Well it is absolutely gorgeous up here,

but unfortunately we've already had

a few mishaps with nature.

Elise was stung by a bee seven times.

It was right when she got here, and I wasn't even here yet,

but apparently a bee got stuck in her shirt

and stung her over and over.

I just, oh my heart just hurts thinking about that.

- So I was just swinging and talking to Isaac,

and then suddenly I felt a lot of stuff on my back.

And I was crying, and then Isaac ran up to Grandma,

and then I ran up and then.

- But my mom knew just what to do and put some stuff

on it right away, and she's feeling a lot better.

But then, this evening, Isaac was playing

with some of our little cousins on the deck,

and he was so cute with them.

He backed up and accidentally fell off a rock ledge

and landed on a rock.

This is like a four-foot drop.

My jaw just dropped.

Anyway, I'm still just scared even talking about it.

I'm so glad that he's okay.

So he has some scrapes on his arm and a gash on his back

that's kinda swelling up, and he's being so tough about it,

but I know he's hurting and I just wanna cry

even just thinking about it.

- It's just been a little bit of a rough start to the cabin.

- You okay?

- [Isaac] Yeah.

- [Jeremy] Look at his back.

Yep, he fell right on his back.

- You are so tough.

I know, I know, I don't wanna see it again.

I'm so glad you're okay.

That's scary.

- Honestly, from looking at his wounds,

I'm really grateful that he's not hurt worse, because

falling on a rock this high up is

that's pretty dangerous, you can hurt yourself pretty bad.

- The Blast Song.

- [Jeremy] We're singing the Blast Song.

♫ We will come along with you

♫ To spend time together

♫ We love seeing each other

♫ And having a blast

♫ Together at last

♫ They're running and jumping

♫ And having a blast

What are we doing right now?

- Ice cream.

- [Jeremy] Ice cream, what's it called Elise.

- Chris' four wishes.

Wishes for Chris'.

- You did it backwards.

- Ooh.

♫ For family, we'll be

♫ A good example to each family member

♫ And when I am a mom or dad

♫ So glad, I'll have my family remember

♫ God gave us family

(laughing)

- [Kendra] She does not know what to think.

- [Elise] Good night.

- [Jeremy] She has a super loose tooth,

and she wants me to pull it out.

- Get it out, oh.

- [Kendra] There's the heavy artillery.

(screaming)

So today is Janae's first time in a pool.

(laughing)
