The longest post ever....Can't help it.

We had an AMAZING weekend away last weekend visiting with family, hiking, playing in the snow and star gazing through Gavin’s new telescope, compliments of the best uncle in the world (we love you Jimmers). More on that later.

Here are a few pics of our little get away place, “The Little Red Cabin”

This little mountain cottage had a fabulous deck with everything we needed to relax.
A fabulous hammock witch we all enjoyed.

The inside was adorable too. The owners Lynn and Doug thought of everything. There was something special for everyone. A little doggie bone place matt and doggie bowls for Penny and Ginger not to mention doggie treats and their own little plaid blankets.

A little drawing nook for Gavin, complete with colored pencils and paper.

Resort style bed for Kevin and I. It was seriously one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in EVER! It had wonderful high thread count sheets and gorgeous bedding. There were also “his and hers” robes hanging behind the door.

Cozy couch and fuzzy blankets in front of the fire.

Of course there were fabulous scenic hikes.

Here’s me looking at you, looking at me, taking a photo of you, taking a photo of me….My uncle Jim and I have a tradition… :)

They brought….THE GAVINATOR… and a couple of other sleds. The more thrills the better for my kid.

One little girl liked being off the leash a little bit too much. Getting her back was almost a problem.

In honor of Super Bowl, Gavin launched off the first punt.

And the highlight of our weekend was finishing off the day having dinner with my aunt and uncle. The one thing my family knows how to do…is laugh, and we did……lots.
