The beginging of our adventure. Loading the snowcat.
Our first night with stockings full of presents from Grandma and Grandpa.

Here we are happy as can be, what a great family.
My family went up to the Idaho lodge Dec. 22-24, 2008. It was quite the adventure. The morning we left there was a huge storm and it took us quite a bit longer to get to Idaho. Once we arrived we boarded the snow cat and headed to the lodge. It was pretty crazy but we made it. The lodge was FREEZING and so were the kids, once the water heater heated up a little we put them all in the tub to warm up. Grandma Jean gave them stockings full of fun pirate toys that night and we had fun playing with them. The next day we had a lot of fun cutting down a christmas tree, making decorations like stringing popcorn, making paper dolls and snowflakes, and many other fun ornaments and decorated the tree. Then we went sledding and had a ton of fun doing that. I didn' get any pictures of sledding so I will have to get some from my sister. We came inside to warm up, eat lunch, have naps, and play pool. That night we had a little nativity story, sang some songs and opened more presents. The day we left was my Dad's birthday. He was born on Christmas eve and it was fun to all be together that morning to celebrate. We packed up the snowcat and headed home.
We had our traditional Christmas eve party at my aunt Jills house that night, so we ended with one more party
We had a great time together and made some good memories. Thanks family, love you!!
