Larry the Cucumber's Cabin

We spent this weekend at my Dad's friends cabin. All the kids call him Larry the Cucumber. We had a great time. We played in the snow, stayed up late playing games, watched movies and visited with family. The guys also tried to kill everyone when they started up the snowmobiles. They hadn't opened the garage enough and the fumes from the motors blew straight into the house. Everyone had to evacuate until the air cleared.

Another great moment was when my sister and I were told to hurry outside to break up a fight between the little boys. We went front to find them both black and blue and Tanner standing over the top of Abe with a shovel. Needless to say, it was nap time after that.

all in all we had a great time. All of the boys, little and big, made a huge ramp in the snow and would try to go down the big hill as fast as they could on the sleds. I don't think anyone was seriously injured, which always means it was a good trip!

Christmas Time

I'm finally posting pictures from Christmas... just a little late, I know! We did have a great month though. We had a chance to go to Temple Square to see the lights. We ended up running in to a bunch of people we knew too. We had brought rice crispy treats and hot chocolate to snack on and the evening ended up being really fun!


We had a great Christmas as well. Delicious Prime Rib dinner at my parents house on Christmas Eve, and yummy Honey Baked Ham on Christmas day at our house with the Koen's family. The kids loved their presents and gifts from everyone. Santa was very
kind as well and some how didn't leave coal for both of our kids. He must really love them!














Pictures


















We went to a park and took a few pictures. I just thought I'd share them. Tanner was very proud to have 2 missing teeth right now and loves to show his smile!
