Manwaring Cabin Trip 2011!

Eli, Wes, Kaylin, Benjamin (Bet you wouldn't guess we could all fit on one sled?)

March 10-13 we loaded up and all gathered together in one cabin!  It was the cabin that the family used to go to as kids and brought all their fun memories back!  It was a great cabin for the 40 people that we had!  Everyone had their own space and the adults had beds.  Their was plenty of room to spread out and not be on top of each other which is very important in my book of 3 day vacations with 40 people!  A pool table and ping pong table downstairs and three family rooms! We had a blast and the cousins all were able to bond and play together non-stop which I think is one of the most important reasons of getting together!

Dad with Eli getting ready to go down AGAIN!

Eli's favorite part besides playing with cousins 24/7 was sledding REALLY FAST down the mountain!  We had a great sledding hill close to the cabin.  Eli, Wes, and Gaby enjoyed this mountain the most!  They would go down then get a ride back up on the snowmobile and go back down (my kind of sledding!  No work out involved!)  They really FLEW down the mountain laughing and smiling the whole way down on their OWN sleds!

Natalie going down the same mountain as the kids!  Her face tells you how fast they would get going! lol

Here is what Spencer did the whole time...stayed in the cabin! and he didn't even mind! Can't tell they are cousins can you!?! Collin and Spencer are only 2 1/2 months apart!  They will be great friends!

And Last but not Least,  We played a really fun game of Minute to Win it!  It was Hilarious and the best was Junk in the Truck,  Benjamin, Melissa, and Emily were the stars and you'll have to take my word and everyone else that was there that it was great! But unfortunately those videos are not for other peoples viewing pleasure! lol

Here are some pictures that you can see...
