Moms Only Weekend

Once a year Mom, Jody, Sherrie, Desi and I take a nice little vaca from the kids and husbands. I know it's hard to believe that we could pull ourselves away from our loved ones for so many days, but believe me when I say it wasn't that hard (we still love you). Me and Sherrie hop in her hubby truck heading North, while Mom, Jody and Desi hop in moms little car heading South. We meet in the middle and head on up the mountain to Sherries cabin (thanks Sherrie).
Can you believe this is the view we saw everyday while we were up there? It was beautiful (except for the snow)! We just had to walk out the doors and enjoy this from every direction. I think the sun setting was my favorite, just watching the colors change slowly form red, purple, blue as the sun sinks into the mountain. WOW

We not only enjoyed the view outside we also enjoyed the hot tub. Your probably wondering why the bottom two pictures of us in the hot tub are kinda fuzzy. Well let me tell you about the wild and suicidal Pot Gut they have..... Jody, Desi and I sat it in the nice warm hot tub enjoying the nature sounds and the cool breeze. But something was missing in our nice warm water, "BUBBLES" that is what we needed. As we started to fiddle with the buttons to turn on the bubbles, something caught the corner of my eye. But not just me, Jody sees it too, a rolly polly pot gut is running straight at us with those short little nubbin legs (and trust me he was cruising). Let me just say that we have one light on and its in front of us, so we can't see a single thing in the water. Being surprised at this little guy, we step back, and then we see him jump up on the stairs to the hot tub. We all start screaming, and splashing the water out of the hot tub hoping that he goes with it. Something brushes Jody's leg and she jumps on the small rim of the hot tub. Desi starts laughing at Jody, then all the sudden the light flick on and Sherrie pops her head out of the door and my mom peeks through the window. Did they ask us if we're ok? NO, they just laughed at us and took pictures. Anyways, we search the water frantically hoping its not in there, ok me and Jody search while Desi laughed. Nope, he was not in there and neither was all our warm water. Let me just say watch our for those fuzzy pot guts if your in Beaver.

Ok, we also do have other activities besides hot tubbin we have crafts (thanks mom and sis). This year we made a Halloween table runner. It was so cute, pumpkins, ghost and a bat. We love to just be with each other and make each other laugh, which we had plenty of both.

These are just some fun pictures we took on a warm day. As you can see my sister had way to many yummy sweets, that we had at the cabin.

This is all of us just having a good time and enjoying the peace and quiet. Ok, not so much quiet.

I just want to say thanks to the hubby's for letting us take off and leaving the kids at home. Mom's do need a brake every once in awhile and this is what we all needed.

So big hugs and kisses from me.
I so can't wait for next year......
