A room with a view!

This is the view out of the sewing room window.

It's pretty amazing!

SNOWED IN!

We are having an amazing winter snow storm! It is supposed
to drop a foot or more of snow by tomorrow night. As you can
see by the pictures, we are prepared. Dad has made sure I
have plenty of fire wood! And he has been using the snow
blower to make it so we can get around. The bad news is that
he has gone back to Seattle and the snow is still coming. I
think I just might be snowed it. But as all of you know,
that's just fine with me! A warm fire and a cup of hot
chocolate is all I need! I always know I can call for help
if I need it!




The icicles are huge hanging off the house!
This is quite the view, don't you think?


Is that a 4-wheeler I see? I thought we were
using snowmobiles these days! It's nice to
know we have more than one mode of transportation.




We look forward to having Amy and Justin next
weekend for the McCall winter carnival, and
Jeff and Brenna are coming on the 6th of February!
Brian and Em will come then too...we hope to see
Wendy and kids soon! I love sharing this beautiful
place with all of you!

everyone needs to blog!

So, I was thinking that everyone needs to blog! I love reading Wendy and Mel's blogs...it's a great way to keep up on what's happening. I think it would be really fun if everyone in the family kept a blog with pictures. It's a great way to keep in touch and it's so easy! Especially when Wendy sets it up for me! I'm sure she would do the same for anybody who wishes to join the Bird Blogging world.

Last weekend we had Mike and Lynette Frank, with their two kids, Elaine and Travis at the cabin, along with Brian and Emily, Stuart, Sarah, and Mason, Emily's brother Craig, Alison, and three boys and Olivia. It was so much fun! I think the best part was when Sarah and Stuart went skiing at Tamarack! Yes, the first grandchildren have been skiing on our mountain! Look at how happy Stuart looks! He did so well!

Tamarack has a moving sidewalk called the magic carpet. You can ride it up to the top of the little beginner hill and then ski down. All of the kids need to try it! Maybe grandma can learn on this hill!

The kids also had fun making snow caves, snowmobiling with Grandpa, and just being together!

Thank you Olivia for coming! Elaine loved having a friend!
