Weekend at Cabin


Luke finished the last day of his third rotation. I am happy to report that we only have 5 more rotations left until graduation. (Can you tell we are counting down?) To celebrate his "last" Christmas break we headed up to Palisades with my parents to their cabin. We had a great weekend of relaxing and playing in the snow. We were excited to see all the snow that came down. It snowed consistently the two days that we were up there. We did a lot of playing in the snow and Brynlee enjoyed riding the snowmobile again. She also did a little skiing with her Sad and Papa Allred.
The biggest excitement/work came when my dad's truck got stuck in the snow and then slipped down to the side of the mountain. The snow gods must have been mad at us for driving the truck to the cabin on the 11th of December and got back at us. It took 4-5 hours of work, along with a chain wench, and lots of digging to get the darn thing off the mountain, but at least we are all home safe and will be driving the snowmobiles to the cabin through the rest of winter.

This is my dad's truck stuck on the side of the road leaning down the mountain.

Did you take that cute picture at the top of your BLOG just this weekend? What a darling candid shot! What is that chair doing out in the snow? looks like you 3 had a blast (exept for pulling the truck back up to the road) I am assuming no one was hurt...

Now that's a lot of snow... but you're little girl is just so adorable all bundled up to play in it! She looks so much like you! Hope your family has a Merry Christmas!

(By the way, we move to Rexburg about a year ago... don't ask me why! :} )
