Easter and "Spring" Break

We planned on spending spring break at the cabin, of course, but we had our annual Easter egg hunt with Mamie and Papa a couple days before we left. Since it was so cold and snowy outside, they had it at their church! It was a fantastic place for an Easter egg hunt, especially for the older kids!

On Tuesday afternoon we left for the cabin. It was definitely not a spring break- it felt like a second WINTER break! It was the first time we've had to use chains on our tires this year. This is the top of our gate...

Needless to say, this is the most snow we've seen up here. Here's our weather vane, which again, is about the same height as Violet, maybe a little taller. We probably had about 5 feet around our cabin.

We had fun sledding all kinds of hills.

And drew on the snow with icicles.

And of course had all sorts of fun inside the cozy cabin.

Travis brought his old homemade weapons he made as a kid. Our kids have absolutely loved playing with them.

Then we came back home to spring again. :) Yes, this was the best photo I could get.
