THANKSGIVING AT THE CABIN

WOW did we have a fabulous Thanksgiving! Typically I am not a huge fan of the holiday. I enjoy the opportunity of getting together with family, but the idea of cooking for days to create one meal of food that isn't even my favorite just doesn't appeal to me. And don't even get me started on the clean up...(but I won't whine. I went hiking this year instead of doing dishes). Naughty Kim.

 

This year, however, was a real treat! My sister and her husband just bought a cabin in Island Park, Idaho and remodeled it. It is a GORGEOUS cabin in a GORGEOUS setting. It was like a fairy tale holiday! We visited amazing falls, hiked in the forest by the river, played games, visited and just relaxed in this fabulous setting.  (I hope I'm not making you all too jealous- I just can't help it).  We also went in to West Yellowstone- saw the bears and the wolves, shopped a bit and ate pizza. There was just enough snow for the kids to sled and snowboard behind the Rhino and just enough chill in the air to make you want to curl up by the fire when you came in. 

This is what Thanksgiving should be, people!

My kids all say this was their favorite Thanksgiving ever and I have to agree!

Sledding kids!

The Rhino was a big hit!

Thanksgiving dessert was yummy.

My cute family.

Everyone that came.
