Cabin Trip!

We are fortunate to have friends with a fabulous family cabin in beautiful Swan Valley Idaho.

The kids had a four day weekend (or at least 3 of the 5 - Kambree and Devree had work) and we took off. 

Here we are on the way:

 And then about an hour later:

 We stopped in Idaho Falls at Plumb Loco for Mexican food. I was wearing my "traveling slippers" so James had to carry me to the truck because it was raining.

But then, when we got closer.....it looked like this:

And we got stuck:

 What do the women folk do while the men folk figure out how to get us unstuck?

Make snow angels of course.....

And read in the warm cab of the truck.

(Honestly, I would have helped but I was just in the way!)

Still inside the truck....stuck!

We finally got there and the girls started one of many games of Old Maid:

Ry needed to practice some ballet:

It was harrowing but so much fun. Thank you Walton's for inviting us!
