3rd Annual Utah Family Get Away!

The first week of February has been an annual Cabin Vacation with all of our children and grandchildren.  This year was the third year in a row that we have been able to have this fabulous fun with each and everyone of us spending quality time together.  I have to admit it is one of my very favorite things we do all year and something I really look forward to.

As the economy has continued to be very difficult it has been a great challenge to our family also.  Business has been not so great and it was for the first time in many , many years that doing something like this was a great sacrifice for all involved.  We are doing our best to keep the family business going in more than difficult circumstances.  We pray daily and hope that what the Lord has in store for us will keep us going. 

Needless to say this was a great time for all and we are more than grateful for the Family time for sharing and loving one another.  We are so grateful to Ashlee and Jake for getting us this fabulous cabin each year.  It belongs to Jake's best friend and his family.  Thanks Ashlee and Jake!!!!!



For part of Christmas this year I made all the Grandkids fun colored hats for the trip!  I tried to get them done for the adults too but it did not happen.  I'll keep trying! Here are some pic's of the grandkids in their hats! Garrett and Bristol seem to somehow have missed the photo shoot!


While our children went out to play in the snow for the afternoon on snowmobiles and tubes and sleds. GiGi (Me) and Grandpa (Nathan) and I watched all seven grandkids! It was party time and GiGi had a fun Valentines Celebration planned. While Garrett and Spencer napped the Girls had Girl time and Grandpa kept baby Bristol occupied. You can see we had a great time! Pedicures, storytime, Valentine making,



"Fancy Nancy" of Course!



And a Special Valentines Cake!

We played many games of Yahtzee!



Some Winners!


Some Loosers!

Dance time

Corn Dogs made a photo opp too!





There was a JAZZ Game, Sledding, Extreme Tubing, Cars Stuck in the snow, Night Snowmobiling, Jacuzzi time and much much more!
Needless to say it was some much needed R&R for all of us!

I look forward to many more Family Adventures!

  1. Thanks For Your Concepts. One Thing We've Noticed Is That Often Banks And Also Financial Institutions Know The Spending Habits Of Consumers Plus Understand That Most Of The People Max Out Their Cards Around The Vacations. They Properly Take Advantage Of This Kind Of Fact And Start Flooding Ones Inbox And Also Snail-mail Box Using Hundreds Of Zero APR Credit Cards Offers Soon After The Holiday Season Comes To An End. Knowing That When You Are Like 98% In The American Community, You'll Rush At The Possible Opportunity To Consolidate Credit Debt And Switch Balances Towards 0 Annual Percentage Rates Credit Cards.

  2. One Thing I Want To Say Is The Fact That Before Acquiring More Pc Memory, Take A Look At The Machine Into Which It Could Well Be Installed. If The Machine Is Running Windows XP, For Instance, The Actual Memory Limit Is 3.25GB. Setting Up More Than This Would Merely Constitute A New Waste. Be Sure That One's Mother Board Can Handle Your Upgrade Quantity, As Well. Interesting Blog Post. agen betting terpercaya
