We spent New Year's Eve at Brenda's brother's place- almost fell into a coma, it was so exiting. No, we really had a good time- we even stayed awake! Usually we're just sitting @ home, staring at each other 'til we slowly sink into the abyss... New Years Day, the Krebs (from Maple-town) invited us to go snowmobiling with them.
I don't know how many ways we tried to talk ourselves (and them) out of it because it has been so cold. Well, we didn't know what cold was until we got there (Fairview, UT).
We hadn't been out in that kind of cold for a long time, and a lot of the kid's cold-vear (very nice), had not grown along with them- we had to borrow a bit. So, B and I, Sydney (and a friend), and Carson made the trek down. The low traveling at one point got to -13 degrees.
The high of the day I believe was 1 degree- heat wave! Luckily, the Krebs had a trailer that was enclosed and they had a propane heater inside, so we could at least thaw, drink some cocoa, and escape from the wind.
Carson and Garrett dug out a snow cave which was cool, B and I got stuck a few times on the sleds 'til someone came to help dig us out. It helped remind me why I don't have these fun recreational vehicles :)
We did have fun though. After the sledding, we stopped at the Krebs' place and ate items from the 'Eve's celebrations and played some games until it was time to go. A very enjoyable time.
Another blessing that I am thankful for.... great friends that have such wonderful toys and that invite us to enjoy them with them.
Happy New Year y'all! Let's all hope that this new year will be a happy, successful, and positive one for all.
