Cabin Fever!

So we took a mini vacay up to Red Feathers Lake with some friends this past weekend. My friend Mitch (a.k.a Michele) and her family have been going up there for years and a couple years ago, before Luke was born, we went up for the weekend and had a blast. It has a hot tub, sleeps 8 comfortable but a crap ton if you bring your own blow up mattress. They have tubing and ice skating close by along with make shaft sledding and snow boarding hills if you are the boys :) And don’t forget just a good old fashion drunken time. Now this time around was a little different, well for me anyways considering Im pregnant, and pregnant people are allowed to have no fun! No drinking, no hot tub, no tubing, no nothing mer mer mer! But I had fun anyways just bullshitting around the cabin with friends I don’t get to see as much as I would like. Mini Luke also wasn’t able to participate in the reindeer games but for another reason, he’s a baby. Don’t let his huge head fool you, he’s a child. But he also didn’t let that bring him down, he played the piano, ate a bunch of crap he wouldn’t normally eat, and was spoiled by everyone there. I was looking forward to seeing him ice skate but it was so windy that’s that there was no way he would have been able to do it. The wind would have picked him up and blew him back to Fort Collins. The wind was blowing Mitch and Josh all over the place, granted those two should eat a sandwich every once in awhile but that’s beside the point. So Mini Luke and I watched form the restaurant with Corey and Steph who is also 5 months pregnant and not allowed to have fun. We were joined shortly by Emilee who was “concussed” after slipping on the ice before ice skates were rented. I blame this solely on the “carryover” she had from the night before. With no surprise her and Mitch were up till 6 am hooting and hollering, haha man I miss those times :( So Mitch, Joey, Mike, and Josh attempted to ice skate during the tornado that was going on that morning with hockey sticks which was entertainment for us inside but they only lasted 30 mins before they hung up their skates. And if it wasn’t for that pesky inflation they would have gone tubing too but 30 bucks a person was a lil rich for our blood so we opted to go back to the cabin and drink. Of course once we got there the boys had cooked up some plan to go ice fishing with no proper equipment and maybe even sled down the lake damn, which from what I heard was pretty steep. Josh had bought one of those small snowboard things from Wal-Mart where you just slip your feet in some straps that they were going to take and try and ride down this hill. They would have taken Luke’s saucer but that didn’t make it past the first day thanks to Joey and a hidden rock. So the boys left on their half baked trip and the girls stayed behind and took naps which were of course interrupted because the boys had got the truck stuck while dragging josh behind the truck from a rope on his mini snowboard. Genius I tell ya, genius. So after everyone was back we all just chilled played some Wii and the boys played poker. All in all it was a great mini vacay and I can’t wait for next year!
