Cabin Fever!

Das and I can't get enough of the cabin in the summer....and now I think we are hooked on going in the winter.  This weekend we took up our close friends, the Olsons.  Matt and Melissa brought up two adult snowmobiles, and one child snowmobile.  We got up there late Thursday afternoon.  The cabin of course was freezing.  I rode in with their oldest, Riley.  I was very impressed that he is only 12 and got me up there in one piece.  Got everything turned on and got a fire going. It was a chilly nightFriday we woke up and went outside to do some sledding.  Our cabin sits on a very large hill that is perfect for sledding down.  Matt and Das went out for a ride on the snowmobiles and then us couples went for a ride after.  We raced around in a large field and my body still hurts from the work it takes to manuever those machines.  But was so worth it.  Missy and I loved being the only girls there and watching the men do there stuff.  Saturday morning we turned our sledding hill into a luge.  Das, Matt, and Riley dug out spots and made burns for us so we didn't go into the trees.  By the end of the day we were cruising so fast that we had to bail off before we got to the end.  Missy brought up all the food....and it was delicious.  The cabin heated up real fast the next day so we started opening up windows to cool it down.  We hope to get up there again within the next month and take advantage of our bobsled worthy hill.
