President's Day Weekend

As you may or may not know- every year my family goes to Bear Lake for President's Day weekend.  I can't really remember a time when we didn't.  When we were younger- it was all about sledding and playing around in the snow.  As we've gotten older- my dad totally spoils us and takes all the adults (except for Grandma- who says she'd rather hang out with her grandkids) up to Beaver Mountain Lodge and rents snowmobiles for a day!  It's so much fun!  I love snowmobiling!  And the best part- EVERY single one of us were able to go this year.  No one was pregnant or moving...  It was awesome!  And- we only had a few minor setbacks during the day... Dad buried his sled up to the seat during one of his daring hill climbs, Shaun got stuck trying to help him and Dave lost his sled during his rescue effort.  Miss, Jer, Nat and I laughed at them- we were the super helpful ones can you tell??  I also got stuck- but my cute husband saved my turkey- thanks Shaun.  And a SUPER BIG THANKS to my dad!!

The rest of the weekend we spent playing cards, watching movies and sledding.  You can see why I look forward to this every year!

Dave and Cam..
 Nat and Cam...
 Cam...
 Kate...
 Ty... Ty actually was really pretty crazy out sledding.  My parents' cabin is on a pretty big hill and Ty climbed higher and higher each time he went!
 Me and my kiddos...
 Grandpa and Ryan... Ryan was a little leery (as he always is) and had to have some help at first.
 But once he got the hang of it- no one could stop him.  And he just looked so stinkin' cute on his little green sled.  The green ones spun circles as you went down- so they were totally nutso- can you guess which ones the boys liked the best???
 Kate did not like sledding.  But I talked her into it for about three runs.  Then she was done and only wanted to hang out with Grandpa.
 Naturally Grandpa humored her!
