This past weekend we went to Heber with Mike's family. Yes, it snowed. It was cold, but we had a couple of space heaters in the cabin which made it bearable. But I don't think I took off my coat except at bedtime. And then I wished I still had it on.
It was great seeing everyone (except Dan and Courtney and Chris and Randi) and was really fun to watch all the cousins have so much fun playing together. Of course the older boys loved the fire. We had to convince them not to poke sticks in and out of it and to leave the hatchet alone.
Once the kids were all in bed, we all huddled around the campfire playing silly games until we got too cold.
The next morning started out okay (despite a restless nights sleep), but ended up snowing. Lily and Ellie seemed to especially love the snow. At one point Ellie thought Lily was going in and she grabbed her arm and said "NO!" It only snowed an inch or two. It started to let up so we decided the roads wouldn't be too bad and decided to stay (as planned) until after lunch.
We finally got the kids inside to do a craft, so a bunch of us were able to play a game called Werewolves (which is similar to Mafia if you've ever played that). Once we got the rules down it was quite fun.
Finally we squeezed everything back into our car and headed down the mountain. And cranked the heater way up when we got home. :)
Hmm, for some reason I can't get the slideshow to embed. So you'll just have to click here to see all of the pictures.
