Cabin Fever

With Luke working and in school we decided we were in great need of a get away...so, we packed up our bags (and brought Cornishs along with us) and headed to my parents cabin. We were so surprised when we got up there and realized how much snow there was!! Crazy...so, we loaded up the sleds and made the trek to the cabin. Thankfully my parents got there before us and had the cabin all warm and toasty and had dinner on the table. Thanks mom and dad! We had such a relaxing evening talking and watching movies.

We woke up Sunday morning and decided to go up to Jackson for the day. I had the idea of going to the Elk Refuge. Luke thought the idea sounded B-O-R-I-N-G but I knew the boys would love it. So we decided just to drive through it ourselves instead of taking the sled ride in...big mistake. The beginning was great and Linc loved it. Luke had seen enough and wanted to leave but I persuaded him to drive a little further. That's when it happened... we were driving around a parked car and started sliding to the side of the road. The lip of the road kept pulling us in. We were stuck. Thankfully a few men helped us and had shovels but after 45 mins of digging and spinning wheels Kass decided to take action and call the sheriff. Once the sheriff got there we hooked up and thought it would be no problem...well it was no problem after having her drag us in 2 feet of snow for 30 yards. I was seriously surprised when we finally got out...we almost took her in with us!! Well one of the ladies that was helping us came and got my camera from us and told me she needed to take some pictures cause we would have a funny story when we got home...so, thanks to her, here are some pictures. Glad that's over.

The rest of the weekend was so fun and relaxing and it was really good to have our daddy away from his homework for a few days. I'm not looking forward to him making up for lost time though....

Thanks mom and dad for the wonderful weekend! We will definitely do it again...but next time we will pay the $19 a person to take the sled ride into the Elk Refuge. Ha ha.

Here's the boys "Helping pack and get ready for the cabin."I sure love my boys!
