Valentine's Weekend

For Valentine's weekend we went to Idyllwild with 4 other families. We had a great time hanging out with our friends and playing in the snow. Thanks to Stephanie & Christian for organizing this fun retreat!

Here is our big boy LUKE who didn't love being cold..... but he got use to it as time went on.....

Karsten LOVED the snow..... he loved sledding.... he had a great weekend!

Here is Karsten sledding down a hill all by himself..... be jumped on and went for it! Keith spent many hours digging out and making this AWESOME Snow Cave... it was so cool.... this is a picture of the kids inside of it.

We went into town on Saturday afternoon for coffee and to check out the shops..... here is Jannae & Baylee and Ainsley & I

Here is Christian & Stephanie's little princess..... Brooke


Here are our friends the Spencer's..... Chad, Michelle, and Everest
Here is Tim and our precious snow baby.... Ainsley

We didn't have a bathtub in our cabin so the sink worked great. It was neat to see them in the warm bath but if you look right out the window behind them the trees are covered in snow.

Here is Melissa and Cameron Clayton.....
Here are the kids waiting for their Valentine presents from mommy and daddy..... we gave them each a small stuffed animal and a container of cookies.

Ainsley and I outside our little cabin......

What a great time away! I am continuously amazed at how many paths are being crossed in relationships from years ago...God is so good and so faithful! We knew Chad and Michelle from Calvary years ago and I went to Cal State with them. Many times I have wondered where they are and now they have a little one:) Were the cabins separate or did you all share one cabin?
