We were able to make a trip to my grandpa's cabin in Bear Lake. I love the cabin in the winter! When the beautiful pines are topped in snow and the lake is frosted over, I know Christmas is on its way. The snow played out perfectly for us. We had about a foot of base and then it snowed lightly the morning we went up.
The boys spent all day Saturday on their snowmobiles. Devin loved tracking up the newly fallen snow.
Bill (Devin's brother) got to come up for a morning snowmobile ride too. The guys were all excited about the snow, the hills, and the open bowls they found and Devin was excited that his snowmobile fired right up for its first use of the season. They loved spinning cookies and getting themselves in squeezy predicaments. Devin started teaching Amy and I how to spin some cookies on the snowmobile. It was really fun when I started getting it (and tiring), I need a few more trips to practice.

Amy, Bridger and I went on a morning snowshoe outing. It was a great work-out snowshoeing up a hill while holding Bridger!Bridger is so cute in his little snowsuit!
We also hiked up a found ourselves a Christmas tree! This is one of my favorite Christmas traditions. Hiking up the mountain, examining every tree on the mountain until my dad picks out the perfect tree, singing "Oh Christmas Tree" as we cut it down, and dragging the tree back down the mountain while we get into snowball fights.
Bridger was so tired, he slept the whole time we were climbing up the mountain.He woke up when Katelyn ran by screaming, running from a snowball. :)
Here is the whole family with our Christmas tree!
Our little family.
