The Big 20


Happy birthday to me! As of last Friday the 15th, I turned the big 20.  It was a fun day.  I woke up and  Tyler was sweet enough to offer me breakfast in bed, but asked me if I'd still help him cook..... :) I just laughed and we cooked breakfast together. He went and got me some balloons and my gift, a nice pair of new sunglasses to replace the ones I left in the bathroom at SeaWorld.

Later that evening, we made plans to eat with my mom and her boyfriend because my mom and I share birthdays.  Unfortunately, he was close to 30 minutes late picking her up, which made them 45 minutes late to dinner, so we decided to just go do our own thing.  We ended up going to Starbucks for my favorite drink, and then on Saturday we went to PF Chang's for a yummy (day-after) birthday dinner. 

I got Tyler to do something pretty funny for my birthday:




That's about it for my birthday blog! Have a great week everyone!

Sledding Part 2

We went up to the cabin today to get our stuck snowmobile out of the cabin driveway. After a lot of work compacting the driveway and a lot of trouble getting it towed down to the trailer we started on our way home. Maybe I'll add more to this blog post later but I just wanted to get the pics online for those who wanted to see em. There ya go.

Sledding!

Some time around October Jared bought a couple of old snow mobiles. We picked them up from getting tuned up on New Year's Eve and today we brought them up to the cabin.

It's been fun and tiring. One of the sleds doesn't start very well so it has worn us out getting it going. The cabin is getting warm and we have a nice fire going.

In just a bit we're going to try and get the sleds started again. Here's some pictures of the scenery!

Update: We tried to get the sleds started and could only get one started. The other one is covered in plastic and still sitting up at the cabin. We left a little earlier than we were planning on because of the trouble with the machines.

Jared and I went down first. I dropped Jared off and went to pick up my dad. I brought my dad back down and went back up to turn around and came back down. Some prick in an F350 backed up into the spot next to us and left like 8 inches for us to back out. There was no way for us to back out without getting in an accident so we had to pull forward into a snow bank.

We spent the next 2 hours or so digging out under the wheels, putting chains on to have them come off before putting them on again and more digging. Some awesome guy with a winch was finally able to pull us out. Thanks guy. And a special thanks to the inconsiderate prick in the 350 for boxing us in like that!
