We headed to to the cabin...just the 6 of us! It was actually...relaxing! No major projects or chores to do there...just watch the kids, prepare meals and have fun. Not so bad for a family of 6! The kids played outside in the ice...I mean snow. Literally 3 feet of snowy ice! We could just walk on top of it! The kids tries sledding and skiing, but they were flying way to fast...into the woods... so going down on their bellies like penguins was way more fun...and less dangerous!
We hung out at the cabin all weekend...I think it was the first time we did not venture outside of the development to do something...and it was nice! We played our first (non toddler) family game of monopoly (Simpson's version of course), the kids attempted skiing ...but not the perfect snow, Dave used Andy as a bowling ball on the sheet of ice that was the driveway (Andy kept asking for more!), I got 800 photos into albums ~ hooray for me!!! (2011 photos uploaded and waiting for March FL vacation to order and place into albums so I do not fall months behind ... AGAIN!) And Dave & I got our picture taken by Sarah...who loves the camera..YAY!)
