more cabin fun

 We had such a wonderful time all together at the cabin! All of our children but Mason and all of our grandchildren…all 21!  Michael entertaining the kids with his iPad.

Mary's Birthday

 The Dads took the children for a drive in Blake's new 15 passenger van so we could do a girls hour without the children.  They took all of them but the babies who were asleep.  That means 18 little people.  I don't think it was very fun for any of them, darn it.  There was no snow to play in so they drove them to see what the beach looked like in winter and the little stinkers started out on the ice and about frightened them to death!
 This is what happened at the cabin while they were gone.  Hand, feet, neck, back and leg rubs.  Yup, we pampered her!
 opening her gifts.  The kids were so excited to watch her.
 Group hug!  Can you see Mary in there?
 Papa got caught directing traffic :)  Mary is showing off the Willow Tree figurines that we got for her.  One is the "Sunshine Angel" for our Mary Sunshine, and the other is "Surrouned by Love".  How we love our Mary Sunshine.  Happy Birthday!
 Brinn made her an ice-cream cake that was SO delicious! and fun!

Thanksgiving at the Cabin

 Kreighton was watching me stir fudge and kept licking the outside of the bowl in hopes there would be something there.
 The children are starting to be able to play games independent of the adults.  Great!

 Our little dancers, Esther and Kreighton
 This boy LOVES music and especially dancing to it.  He came up often with his little arms up to dance with me.
