Pine Valley Cabin over Memorial Day Weekend...

Memorial Day weekend was the weekend Grandma Campbell scheduled the cabin in Pine Valley.  The kids were really excited to spend time with cousins.  I took pictures of the bicycle ride from the reservoir and out at the Laub ranch but not much else.  Mikayla was riding her bike like a boss!




I was running beside Mikayla because Mark wanted to ride the wiggle car and I had a strap to pull him when he got tired.  That trail is about 2 miles long and he did so great except for the last 5 minutes.  Then he was done.  


Who can blame him?  That's a long way on a wiggle car!


On Saturday, we went to the Laub Ranch.  The kids loved playing in the pond.





Sunday we went to the cute Pine Valley branch.  There's no nursery so it's a lot of chasing Mark on the grass until church gets out but I could still feel the Spirit.  During sacrament meeting, the entire shady side of the grass was covered with chairs, blankets and families who had come to listen to Sacrament meeting.  It looked like a tent revival.  It was great!!


What else?  There was a cupcake wars competition and our cupcakes finished first.  Because of the elevation, most everyone was having trouble with baking the cupcakes.  A lot of them were big, gooey messes that needed to be redone.  I can't explain why, but ours turned out okay.  Julie really wanted me to bring my piping bags for the frosting so they looked primo!  I totally didn't hear the part about making the cupcakes "Memorial Day" themed.  Woops!  Oh well, we were all tired anyway so I don't feel like it was anyone's best work.  Ha ha!
