We drew numbers to see who we would roll against. Josh kept track of things after the first round.
After many rounds (there were 22 of us) McKenna won the egg roll.

Kim and Amy just happened to be at our house when Mary Ann called to say they would be meeting us later than planned. It took them all of four minutes to decided to drive up to the cabin and tell us. They didn't realize they couldn't drive all the way in. When they saw our truck parked they knew they were in trouble. After walking some they were offered a ride on a four wheeler. They stayed about a half hour and then had to return home.

We went to Causey for the Martin Luther King day. Bruce & I went up a few days early to warm things up. The kids love sledding. The next pictures are Christmas and New Year's Eve.
They have to wait until the snowmobiles get to the bottom before they can go.
A few accidents along the way.
The easy way back up the road.
Fat sheep.
We had a reluctant wise man. Did he not realize Gram spent much time making his costume? Yes, that is a sheep around Ethan's neck. Ty got the fat sheep.
Bruce made Harry Potter wands and boxes for each child. Amy painted the boxes with the leaf of the wood the wand was made. I made purple silk pillows for them to lay on. We chose purple because it wasn't a house color. Kim was rereading Harry Potter and the wand was on purple cloth.
This is a game I think you would all like. Jenna won last year and this year. This year she went without a penny for several rounds only to get one and win.
On Christmas Trevor said we forgot to do the present game. He got his holidays mixed up. Arim wanted to unwrap every time so he had to help pause the music.
We draw numbers for the batting order since McKenna was tired of always being last.
Jenna & Kaycee always make confetti (with our paper shredder). I try to avoid it but they always remember.
We had to clean up before we could do the fireworks!
