Can't Beat Cabin Fun!

This year, instead of going to a cabin over Christmas, we went over New Year's. It was perfect (minus missing the Heindorffs)! Each time we stay in a cabin there's always talk of "when are we gonna get our own family cabin?" Someday...someday...

Rylan basically runs off with his cousins and pays me no attention. Sometimes it's nice but it makes me super sad! I'm just glad he can have such a good time with his best friends :)

Asher had lots of fun playing with Abbi's toys, playing with Brooklyn, and getting lots of attention from grandma and grandpa.




We all brought appetizers for our New Year's Eve feast...and what a feast it was! I think we ended up snacking on those appetizers for the rest of our time up there. Grandpa brought some sparkling cider which the kids thought was super cool. One of Kevin's New Year's Resolutions is to not drink any soda for 2010 so he quickly gulped down a Mt. Dew before the ball dropped...such a goon!
Happy New Year!!





So, what do you do while locked in a cabin with your fantastic family?

You: Act Silly
Crazy Kade and Cross Eyed Kaleb!

Is that not the most handsome face you've ever seen?

Play Games (Of course Hokie Six and Rage were also played!)
Grandpa and Battleship were very popular!


Of course the husbands were glued to the Xbox. I'm sure they stayed up wait too late every night playing and Kevin loved it!

Work on a puzzle And you must finish before anything else gets done...even if the puzzle takes you all day

What's the first thing you notice about the puzzle? THE MISSING PIECE! It's just screaming out, right? Okay, now ignore it and look at the good work we did :)
Sleep



Put on shows
The kids sang "The 12 Days of Christmas" for us. The 'triplets' chimed in "5 Golden Rings"...cute! There was another show about Santa and his reindeer, too.

Play with cousins


Stay in pajamas as long as possible
Eat more food than you should
Laugh a lot
Stay up late
Wake up early with babies
And celebrate all the wonderful blessings we have in our lives, looking forward to a new year!!
