We were so excited to be able to head to the cabin for 2 weeks of winter wonderland at Christmas. We had Thunder's family flying in from California and envisioned lots of frolicking around in lots of cold white stuff. Too bad there was barely any snow!
Thunder and his bro did manage to get higher up the mountain in the snowmobiles. We are literally right next door to some of the most beautiful snowmobile spots in the country.
Christmas morning was buzzing with happy little children! They were so excited to come upstairs and see what Santa had left. Sunshine got a scooter...
Sunrise was in heaven in his little car...
cousin R2 got a fun spiderman toy...
Cloudburst got an iPod...
Tornado got a giant cardboard house that he can color...
and cousin R1 got a kid's laptop.
I was grinning all day thinking of plans for my new 88-key synthesizer!
Uncle R got just what he needed- tongue scrapers.
Karaoke is becoming a tradition for family get-togethers.
Nana and Aunt V. had lots of fun with new Christmas projects.
We did end up with a bit more snow and had a great time sledding down the road. If you look close, you can see Sunshine's tongue sticking out. Maybe it made him more aerodynamic?
Thunder took his dad out for a spin on the snowmobiles, and they came back with a few bumps and bruises. His dad had completely rolled end over end down a hill. It tore off the windshield, the drive shaft, and his dad's helmet! Everyone was fine and they were actually able to fix the snowmobile to get back home.
We planned and prepared many months for this wonderful time. We enjoyed every minute with our family. It may have been cold outside, but we were all very warm and cozy inside the cabin.
