On one of our long weekends off from school, we decided to go up to Wintergreen to enjoy the snow. Originally, David I were going to take the kids up and practice the snowboarding that they had learned over Christmas break. But, at the last minute, David had to go out of town. So I invited my family up to come with me and the kids. Since I wasn't about to take the girls out snowboarding by myself, we mostly just lounged around the cabin for a few days. There was a lot of yummy food made by Oma and a lot of TV watching going on. It was a nice little get away, not too far from home.
This was the fancy bathroom cup I got a kick out of. The house is owned by a coworker of Davids and it wasn't very kid friendly. I was worried the entire time about breaking something that belonged to them... I think we left only breaking one thing - a bowl.
We had wanted to go tubing, but the tickets were sold out. My mom and I did manage to take all 6 kids ice skating! And it think that was a huge hit with everyone... except for Dallin.
See that little hooded head down there in this picture? That's Lane - he was mostly in this position the entire time! He left with only getting a bloody nose, but I'm shocked he didn't leave with a broken bone...
Dallin hung out by the fire the whole time. It was pretty darn cold. And the poor boy doesn't own adequate winter gear. He mostly cried the whole time. Next year we will be more prepared for him.
After ice skating it was back to the cabin where a crock pot of hot chocolate was waiting for us and Poppy built us a nice warm fire.
