The "Passer-outer"


Still celebrating....

Arrows for Caden...

Badmitton for Daddio...

My lovely scarf from Allison...

Gifts from Santa....Allison was not impressed with the alarm clock from Santa.."They are soo annoying". Such a teen thing to say.

Family Christmas


I think that Brad was really finding things to prolong the excitement!!

Putting up the tree....

The kids did the whole tree this year.  They put the tree together and even properly "fluffed" it and then put all of the decorations on it.  They were such great helpers!

Bryn making South African "Frikkadels"

Bryn's class had a project for history to plan a trip, no expense to great, to a country.  Her country was South Africa.  They each made a dish from that country and shared it with the rest of the class.  It was great fun and the kids did such an awesome job!

Natural Bridge State Park



Okay so everything is hiking STRAIGHT UP!! Oh my, did we all get a fantastic cardio workout.  It was just magnificent. 

Around the cabin


This bird house was on the front porch and was just so neat. 

Inside the cabin....




Hiking in the National Forest



Kissin' in the woods! With no water, no "weapon" for the bears, and 72degrees.  It was sooooooo beautiful and amazing.

Behind the cabin...



We took this just before we went through the arch to see the other side of the mountain! It was trees, treees and more trees!

Cabin at Mammouth Arch, Slade, KY Daniel Boone National Forest



Our little cabin in the "mountains" was soooooo perfect!!  The kids had fun exploring and hiking around the arch.
