Fun in the snow at the cabin

This weekend we went up to our friends cabin. The weather was nice so we spent the afternoon playing outside in the snow. Afterwards we warmed up by the fire, had hot chocolate, and watched a movie. It was a perfect day!






Caleb and Jade teamed up to form the ultimate snowball. They kept tormenting Michael by tossing snow at him, but he showed them. It's not beneath him to wage a full-on snowball war with a couple six year olds.




This is my "best friend". I adore her because she always introduces me as her "best friend Joyce Hanchett" and when she greets me she'll say "Hello best friend" followed by a hug. She calls Michael, Caleb, Dallin by their first names, but insists on calling me Joyce Hanchett for some reason...I love it!
