Bringing in the New Year 2010

We went up to the Heber cabin for the New Year. It was very eventful. The weather was beautiful and it was nice to escape the valley. John somehow managed to get another concussion (this time sledding right into a ditch). It gave us quite a scare. Luckily, Grandma Chris (Alli's mom) was there to help. He played video games the rest of the trip and played Legos. I think this was his 5th or 6th concussion, and each one puts us in a panic. We ate Mexican food every night and went down the zipline. Treslee caught a stomach bug and had to hide in her room for a day. We had a family evening and shared testimonies and love on the last night. The cabin trips always bring out a bit of family drama and our "true colors" aren't always radiant, but we somehow keep going back and have belly laughs that are out of this world.

A wonderful walk on a snowy dirt road.

The kids just wanted a walk in the snow.

When we got to the cabin John was THRILLED to finally see snow.

Here's to a fabulous 2010!
