Cabin Weekend, Flips, Flops and Big Air

It was Valentine's Day weekend.
Big John's Ride

Ariel--just plain amazing
Me at my one of my favorite places.
Brent and Ariel at the top of the sledding run.
We rolled the green summit last year and this year, hmmm bad luck with the Summit. Bri did an excellent duct tape repair. Sarah ended up with a bump on her noggin, insisting all the time that Bri came between her and the machine to protect her.
I love this picture, note Ariel's intensity, she's a natural.

If backflipping gets a little boring, we can jump snowmobiles.

Bad Brad


First thing on the to-do list when we got to the cabin was to build a jump, note Kevin the Great with his bowl of popcorn, Kev told the boys he didn't want to jump but he would sit in his Crazy Creek, eat popcorn, cheer and take pictures.
This is Brad's first back flip.
You should have heard the cheering! Check out Kev in the background yelling for Brad.

More cheering as Kyle nails his flip.


Check out Brent on his first try.
Look close, his left ski flew off, special talent to land this with one ski!

So Kev thought he didn't want to jump, but couldn't resist anymore, he had to do it with style (no I'm not talking about his clothes). If you look closely at the picture--double click on it to blow it up, you will note he is jumping with the popcorn bowl in his hand and that "snow" flurry by his skis is a flurry of cheddar popcorn flying out of the bowl.


Ariel made his favorite cake for him.




Real fireworks to celebrate Brent's birthday.

I have a few more pictures to add and try to fix the missing picture. I'll try to work on it tomorrow.

Oh my gosh, Melinda. I had to call Bob in to see those back flip pictures. Looks like you were having your own Olympics. Kevin definitely gets the points for style. It looks like it was a very fun day!
