Cabin Trip

 A few weekends ago we took a trip to the Riggs Pinetop Cabin with most of my family. It was a great weekend... relaxing & fun.

We took a few hikes throughout the weekend to GEO CACHE! Russ & I have done a few of these at home & on vacations... nerdy but fun!!

Here is Russ finding the first geo cache


The kids couldn't beleive that we actually found a little "treasure" in the woods.

On the hike, Noah tripped and hurt his knee. Sweet Ellie was being his nurse & massaging it for him. I love the little relationship they have!

What a romantic look on Russ's face!


Self-timer pics are so funny!

Russ & Ellie... holding hands cuz they are "birthday buddies"
 ("Ellie, I'm a happily married man"...)

Jaxen & Kaitlyn - best buds when they get together

Sophie wore pajamas the whole weekend...

The kids entertained themselves and kept busy the whole weekend... even if it was inside playing DS games.

Us girls played shang-hai ... a MUST at the cabin!

We were gone from home for only 48 hours - but don't worry we brought plenty of junk in case we got snowed in!

Roxy just bein cute...

The boys (& Elle) hanging out upstairs.. watching the History channel I'm sure (BOR-ING!)

What's not boring though... is just sitting & staring at Lucy. She's so much fun right now.


We'll just say that Sophie "forgot" everything at home. I packed these jammies for her so that's basically all she had. Luckily when it was time to go to dinner one night, we had these snow bibs to "dress her up in" LOL!!

We had fun with the mirrors... obviously... some things never get old!







Noah & Kaitlyn got some last-minute sledding in before we headed home...



... and we got one last geo-caching adventure in too... this one we almost gave up on before finding it. It's amazing that this one was hidden back in 2005 - so many people had signed the log book before us - the first ones were named "The Price Family" - pretty cool!

We missed having Bryan, Auburn, Brad, & Tayler with us - but had a great time at the cabin!
