Cabin Bliss

We went to the cabin over the long weekend and we had so much fun that we extended our stay another day. The snow is the best it's been in years and we had so much fun on the snowmobiles and sledding.



As always we had plenty of food and stuffed ourselves. We enjoyed playing Settler's Of Catan, Hotels, and Canasta. Daniel had fun showing everybody how he gives himself his insulin shots, Christine was even brave enough to give him one. I can't get myself there yet.








We were so pleased and surprised that my parents came out for Monday afternoon. It was so fun having them and Suzanne and her girls join us. My Mother will be talking about her snowmobile ride for months to come.




Christine and Brad made the trip eventful by locking their keys in the car turned to the "on" position. (The car wasn't running, the keys were just turned on.) Needless to say their battery was dead and so we had fun breaking into their car and jump starting them on their way.





We have a tradition of burning our Christmas tree at the cabin on New Year's. Unfortunately we didn't make it up to the cabin this year to do so. We had taken our tree out on an earlier trip and when we got there this time all you could see of the tree was the tip of it. But Scott dug it out and we lit it on fire for our traditional tree burning event.

The nights were so clear and bright from the moon that you could see as clear as if it were dawn or dusk. The days were warm and bright and we were out of the inversion and so it was wonderful all the way around.
