Christmast 2013-Cabin Trip

We spent Christmas morning at my mom's house, as usual, and had our traditional breakfast quiche and baked French toast.  It was Adelyn's first Christmas!  David got me a tandem bike and bike trailer.  He hid them in the garage and wrapper multi-colored Christmas lights around them-so cool looking and definitely not a present I was expecting!  We took the kids for a spin in it but decided to take the tandem bike back because it was really difficult trying to maneuver the thing without crashing! 



The day after Christmas, the Johnson family loaded up and headed to Heber for four days where we rented a cabin from Cheryl Brown, a lady I found on a facebook group.  The Cabin was super spacious and had  four giant rooms.  Unfortunately there was no snow in the Heber area, as we had been hoping, so we had to drive a little over an hour to get to Sunrise.  Neither Adelyn nor Easton were up for the cold and were so miserable from the ice flakes and wind blowing in their face that we only did a few brief rounds of sledding before heading back to our van.  Cousin Kiara discovered a little mouse running around in the snow at the bottom of the big hill we were sledding down. So funny!  We sang songs together as a family around the piano, the girls enjoyed giving each other massages, and the kids absolutely loved going up and down the stairs.  We also took turns shooting bb guns off of the porch, watching movies that Chris downloaded and playing wii games.  Cheryl also had a little "mini" girls hideaway house that she had decked out with cute girly décor.  So fun!

 We didn't have any "girl" winter clothes so Adelyn was stuck wearing Easton's baby jackets/winter gear.  Sorry girlie!

 Brrrr!  It was too cold for us girls to play outside!



 
Heather and Andrew came down from Utah to Celebrate Christmas with us.  The also came with us to the cabin.  The two love birds were SUPER mushy-ick...young newlywed love!
