The Ranch

So this weekend, we went with Tony and Camille out to their family's ranch. It was tons of fun. We went out Friday night and stayed til Saturday.  It was great because we got to sleep in a nice warm cabin.

Here's me, Macie, Cameron, Brennon, and Kaden.  It took awhile for the cabin to warm up, so we had to snuggle a little.

We got out there later Friday night, and then Saturday morning (after Macie woke up all the boys) we had breakfast and then went out to play in the snow.

This is the snow cat.  It was sweet having that to ride out in.  Camille and Tony were super nice and took all the kids (including Macie) in the cat.  That thing is a tank and goes everywhere.  

It really came in handy when I got stuck.  My first time getting stuck was going up a hill.  I didn't keep up my momentum and the track just sunk down in the powder.  There was LOTS of powder.  From when we got there til we left I don't think it stopped snowing once.  It was DEEP DEEP snow.  Tons of fun.  Dustin got really good at getting the snowmachine to tip on its side and do really sharp turns.  Anyway, we were coming out Saturday afternoon and there were some trailers blocking the road so the cat couldn't get out.  We had to find an alternative route which happened to go over this little river.  I tried to go fast through it, but just buried the nose in instead.  I got off and sank down to about my thighs and then the water went into my boots.  At least we were almost back to the truck, so I didn't get too cold.  Luckily the cat was able to just pull me out so we didn't have to dig it out.

We made it back to Camille's and we put Macie in the tub with Mason and Kaden.  She had lots of fun, and they all looked SO cute!
