Snowmobile Trip
We spent the last two days at our friends cabin snowmobiling. It was a blast!!
This is the view from the parking lot where we leave from.
Packing up! We have to snowmobile about 4 miles in to their cabin, it is the only way to get there in the winter. We had to take all our food and sleeping gear and whatever else we need. They have these awesome sleds to pull everything on.

This is Brax and Burke with Jeff. They had a lot of fun together all weekend.

This is the back side of Timp. The weather was amazing the whole time we were there! Sunny and blue skies. We couldn't have ordered better weather.

This was Brad waiting in the van to head up the mountain. I put my hat on him to keep him warm. I think this is one of my favorite pics from the weekend. Could he be any cuter!

I can not express Ashton's anticipation for this weekend. He has been asking constantly when are we leaving and how many more days till we go. He could not contain his excitement! He finally got to go and ride with Pres. Bratt all the way up the mountain.

This is the sign of a fabulous weekend!

Brax & Burke getting ready to jump off the deck. There wasn't near as much snow as last year, but still enough to jump off the deck.

Ellie contemplating the jump. She of course has no fear and had a ball jumping.

We go over to Silver Lake Reservoir to snowmobile on the frozen lake. It is big, and we spent all afternoon there. We took turns sledding and then riding the snowmobile's.

I love this picture! It is my current favorite!

Me and Brad. He was such a crackup. He would bounce around singing his heart out over the sound of the engine. I loved it!

I took Ash, Ellie and Brad back to the cabin early because they were cold. We transport everyone around on these sleds. It is so much fun!

This is Ellie and Sis. Bratt. Ellie helped with dinner and she was so proud of herself! Dinner was delicious!

Brad was so tired that he fell asleep while he was on a ride. He was totally out. I picked him up and put him on a different snowmobile and he stayed asleep. It was so funny!

The only heat at the cabin is the stove. The older boys would haul up the wood in buckets and Brad so wanted to help. He was so proud of himself that he had carried up this log from the wood house.

I love this shot of Ricky and Ellie.


I'm so bugged that my pictures loaded out of order. This was right before we left the cabin. These are happy kids that had a blast all weekend!
