Super fun weekend...sorry long post!

We had a very fun weekend! For Valentines Jake planned an entire day for me and a little for him. We went for pedicures and then we went tanning..when I say WE yes he joined me! After that we went to see Coraline and then to dinner at Porcupine Grill, one of our fav's, for dinner. It was so fun to have some US time. Thanks to my Mom for keeping the wee little ones.

And the other highlight to our weekend was our friends Justin and Jennifer invited us to Spring Haven Lodge up Hobble Creek Canyon.This lodge was huge and the most beautiful place! We went up Friday evening and Sunday for the day. They had to take us on a tour so if we got lost we could find our way and I am not kidding I think it is about 20,000 sq ft. The kids had so much fun! And they even have some new adopted Grandparents!



Sunday we went up and went sledding! Such cute Snow Bunnies!







This is the die hard Max. He had so much fun and ALWAYS had a HUGE smile on his face blasting down the hill! The Kid is fearless! The pictures don't do justice to how high up the hill he was!



Here was our first run down and Kate was so upset at the end because she had snow in her eye's! We were making the path so snow was flying! The snow was deep I would sink past my knee's hiking up the hill. She only made one more trip down and that was with Dad and we pulled her hat over her eye's to prevent snow in her eyes. See picture below...it did not help she did not want to go again! Her face is priceless she was so ticked!




Ohh bad wipe out by Max and notice last picture...GRIN from ear to ear and as he stops he yells WICKED!!!!!

Jennifer even took a couple of trips down and she took a terrible spill but as you see she even smiled at the end too....

Justin's self portrait...
he was too good to attempt to break anything on the sledding hill!


The kids thought they died and went to heaven...the lodge had this playground and tree house. They ran and ran and ran. There was a basketball court, pool tables, foose ball, air hockey, ect ect ect.



Thanks Justin, Jennifer, Phineas and Grandma & Grandpa Hunt (adpoted grandparents Kate fell in love with them and called them grandma and grandpa the entire time) for letting us join your family. We had so much fun.

Don’t let her fool you. I am extremely ticklish, but I endure for the sake of my wife. We don’t get a lot of quality time away from the kids.
