The day after Christmas we packed up and headed to my cabin. The roads were great and the kids were awesome. Calum did not want to leave his helmet behind.
It snowed a lot while we were up there which made it so fun.
The pool is fed by a hot spring, but it never is super hot, probably a solid 75 degrees or so year round. A brave few decided to go for a dip. Calum really wanted to go one night, so him and Kevin jumped in. Haha. The swam a lap or so then got out. Pretty funny to see Calum wanting to be one of the big boys.
We did drive to a real hot springs and go for a dip. Ailee fell asleep on the way there so me and her hung out in the car.
A big crew went up skiing at the nearby ski hill, Brundage. Apparently it was amazing snow. They said it was kind of busy, once they almost had to wait a whole five minutes to get on the ski lift :) Haha.
Calum took two runs and loved it.
He also loved the hot chocolate after :)
When we weren't out playing in the cold, we were inside snuggling, laughing, playing games and doing puzzles.
Calum wore this helmet around for almost an entire day.
Ailee with lipstick on, she also got into a lot of toilets.
We celebrated cute Bo's birthday. Calum told me a few times that he was his best buddy. Pretty cute.
One night we watched Elf and would pause it and do different things. It was pretty fun. We played hide and seek, sung, had burping contests, bubble blowing contests and tickle fights. We also had a long jump competition and of course spaghetti with syrup. Haha.
Ailee did not sleep good at the Ranch and ended up in our bed every night. The first morning, I woke up and she was sleeping like this. In between the slots of the headboard. Every other night we barricaded the headboard with pillows so she wouldn't end up like this. Girl is a wild sleeper. Kevin and me did not sleep great as a result. But we did do a lot of sleeping in to try and compensate. Haha. Anyway, we were glad to get back home and have our children get back on some sort of sleeping schedule.
But the party did not stop I tell ya. Darcie's family was in town fro over a week so the fun went on. Date nights, girls shopping outings, races on the bouncy balls that everyone got for Christmas and yoga challenges... Hahaha. This is typical at the Ramey house, some sort of physical shenanigans. Pretty comical.
The crossfitters in the fan also convinced us to have a family gym day. This is us doing our WOD (workout of the day). Kevin pushed himself a little too hard and threw up! Strangely he went back to the gym a few days later... Maybe he's getting hooked after all?
On New Years we went to the Reckless Kelly concert with our friends Tianna and Brad. It was a fun concert Kevin and I had both never heard them but it was a really fun concert.
Kevin got to go to the USU/BSU basketball game. Aggies won with a buzzer beater. Needless to say Kevin had fun.
Kevin also had a second interview with the sugar beet company here in Boise. Lookin sharp.
We're hoping for good things this new year. Excited to watch these silly kids learn and grow and to welcome a new little monkey into the world. So grateful for my little family, can't wait to see what 2015 has in store for us!
