CaBiN

Over Easter weekend some friends of ours invited us up to their cabin. The kids were so excited and couldn't wait to have a sleepover. We put them all downstairs and crossed our fingers that they would all fall asleep. At 11:00 p.m. we finally separated them so that they would go to bed!
You can see TROUBLE written all over their faces! What were we thinking??? Like they would actually fall asleep!
On Saturday morning we did an Easter egg hunt inside because of the MOUNDS of snow outside! Do you like their Easter baskets?
Coming down from the loft. Such a little pretty!
The kids had so much fun finding their eggs and the big kids were really good to let Janie and Camree get all the "easy" eggs.
Then it was time to go and play in the snow! If the weather won't cooperate then we may as well enjoy it!

Camree was more interested in eating the snow than sledding. That would be way too scary.
Kyson and Ellie had soo much fun playing together.
Camree still wouldn't get near a sled.

Wouldn't these two have the cutest babies ever! I know they are way too young to be thinking about that but they would. Kyson has had the biggest crush on her forever. He is always telling me that he is going to marry her. Although while we were at the cabin he informed us and everyone else that he is going to marry Olivia (Ellie's little sister) instead. That morning Ellie came into her parents room was all upset and said," Mom, Kyson said he isn't going to marry me anymore and that he is going to marry Livey!) Oh too funny! What a little player!

Finally CC braved the sled with Dad.



After sledding we decided to pull a sled behind Ty and Lindsey's Land Rover. We loaded the kids in the back so that they could watch. There is Kyson next to his new wife. I can see where he is coming from, they are both pretty stinking cute!
We made Rob try it out first to make sure we wouldn't die!

Then the kids wanted a turn. Kyson was nervous at first but had a ton of fun.
The only problem with snow in the spring is that it melts fast. Luckily there was only one muddy spot.
Lindsey and I decided to brave the sled. I am just impressed that we could fit both of our butts on there!
We definitely rocked it. There were times that we thought we were going to die but we were laughing too hard to worry about it. Yes, we did biff it, but we biffed it in style!
Then the kids got really brave and wanted to go together! How cute is that.

After sledding behind the car we were ready to come inside and warm up. We ate lunch and then dyed Easter eggs. Caleb, Kyson's partner in crime, he also says that he is going to marry Livey and Ellie. Sadly it was time to go home so that they boys could make it to priesthood. We had such a blast. Thanks Shad and Corie for the invite.

What a fun trip. I just noticed a picture today of me (at least I think it's me) being pulled down a dirt road on a piece of plywood or some such thing. I look about two. I'm thinking the snow and mud are a much better idea.

That looks like so much fun! I love the sledding pictures and Camree's flower in the snow- she's adorable!

Looking at these pictures I can't believe how big your kids are getting and it cracked me up to see them in the sleeping bags. Looks like lots of fun.
