Ok, so Estelle asked for pictures so I thought I had better get them up tonight or it would be another couple of days. We went camping with friend Feb 22-24th at Hide-Away Cabins between Grande Cache and Hinton. It was a great weekend. Benjamin had SO much fun .
These 5 pictures are backwards.. This is Ben and Jordyn laying on the air mattress Ash was pumping up.
Ben and Jordyn watching the fire...that had just been started
Darren, Jordyn, Jason and Ben watching the fire
Darren starting the fire and Benjamin supervising. So we arrived at the cabins at 8pm on Friday night. It was -33 with a wind chill. The sleeping cabins were so cold!! We started all the heaters and hung out in the cooking cabin. It ended up that only 2 couples could sleep in the cabin. Jason and Jodi brought a space heater, so they were able to warm up one cabin enough. The rest of us slept in the cooking cabin.... well we napped in the cabin. The babies had a rough night.
Ben and Jordyn checking each other out
Another one of them laying on the mattress
The meals were all split up so that we only had to bring food and cook one meal. Sat morning breakfast was Sara and Darren Issac and Marty.
Madeline having her breakfast
Ssaturday was -28 so we had to find inside activities.. Plus everyone had naps.Ben and Sara colored together
And then Sara had to draw a hockey shirt, nest, refs and pucks.

Rhonda and Jodi made ribs and baked potatoes for supper. They were SO good
Searving up some supper!!! There was something on the bottom of the oven, so the whole cabin was hazy from smoke.
We played pictionary on Saturday night.

Sunday the weather was ALOT warmer. It made it to -7. So doing things outside was possible.
The wood shack and garbage bins were not unlocked, so Darren climbed over so we could get wood, and put our garbage away.

Our little fisher man!!!!
he had so much fun. When ever we asking him if he wants to go camping again he says "Fishing!!!"
Darren's big catch was the only catch of the weekend.
Benjamin checking out the fish. When we talked about fishing, Benjamin thought we could use our hands like we did in Alaska this summer.
