cabin fever...

We have been dying to get up the cabin, so for Jer's big b-day (he is finally as old as me and can quit with the os-cal jokes) we made our way up to Oakley for a couple of days away from crazy! We have not been up there since Christmas and that is way too long! Everytime we go there, it's hard to explain, but I feel so inadequate or little compared to the beauty of the mountains and the views. I felt that way in Hawaii too, it's just so breathtaking and peaceful, a little sacred, and so different from the city! It's such a blessing to have my kids experience a place like that where they can go hiking, grouse hunting, hawk watching, looking for deer and moose, four-wheeling, and all the other things they get to do up there. Thank you Mimi and Papa! Jer left me in his dust, I just wanted to look at the view!

Happy B-Day J.P.
Little Miss Sunshine!
"Look there is a hawk!"
"Play dead!"..."no I'll get him with my arrow!"
(Carter thinks they're both dummies!)
Major competition. Yummy babies! The boys didn't notice it stopped snowing. 4:00 a.m. after puking and bathing he wanted to "watch a show" Luke cheats! And is so proud of himself!
We welcomed Alec's friend McKay by making him push his 4 wheeler.
A little rainy, but so beautiful! Jer is the owner of a new fly fishing rod, the boys can't wait to go!

I LOVE the pictures of Lukey. He is so hilarious. He really does look proud of himself while playing that game. You guys have too much fun at your cabin. I think I am jealous. And I don't disagree with you often Robyn but honestly, the turkey legs are disgusting. Watching people chomp down on those monsters like they are a snack totally grosses me out. Maybe if I didn't get nauseated so easily I would feel different :)
