Cabin 2016

The most anticipated weekend of the whole summer...Losee Reunion at the Cabin finally arrived! 
Christian came to help Calli pack...This is how he helps since "no boys allowed" Haha!

This is our 9th year coming to the Cabin.

We got there Thursday around 8:00 pm. We had to wait for Sadie to get done with driver's ed. Everyone was already there except Stacy and her family. 
After dinner, Adam and Brandon jumped right into an intense game of  Jenga.
It lasted over an hour. They really got into it.
Adam came out victorious!
Games are always a huge part of the fun
Friday, we walked down to the lodge for their car show. We always go on the 24th weekend. There are all sorts of activities that go on that weekend. 
Cousins hanging outside by the swing.
Even in a cabin with 33 people Calli can find a quiet spot to read her scriptures. She is such a good example.
Craft time. The "little's" love the mosaic's 
Getting ready in the mornings in always an adventure with a house full of girls.
Friday we also played our version of Pie Face...Killer Pie Face!
Instead of just whip cream there was baby food, ketchup, tuna etc. It was super fun...and gross!


Even the adults played a round. 
That night there was a special surprise...Talen brought his mission call to open with the entire family..
Opening his call. We were shocked and excited to hear he was called to the exact same mission as Tavin. 
Congrats Elder Peterson
Bakersfield California

Our next three missionaries. 
It will sure be weird not having these three at the cabin the next couple years. 
That night we played the game we lovingly call "Crazy Ball, Insane Ball, Stress Ball etc. This year the kids made us adults promise to not be so wild. 
Saturday morning we loaded up in cars and headed to the Paraowan park.
Calli trying to climb in the back with the rest of her cousins...she didn't make it 
We always have a blast at the park playing all sorts of games.
All lined up according to height forming our teams. 
This year we did...



an obstacle relay race...




Human Foosball
Angry Birds
Water Balloon Launch
and new this year, Bubble Balls!!






We had a Blast!
The crew crammed in the back of the truck to head back to the Cabin
Losee Olympic award ceremony!
Adam heading out on another bike ride. 
And their off. He loves it and tried to go on as many rides as we could. 
Calli's serious hair do for playing games. 
Adam "died" when the Apple Cobbler wasn't ready yet. Mom took the opportunity to trump him. 
Sunday morning we headed to church.It's always an adventure to go to church in Brain Head. This year we were upstairs in town hall, sitting on the floor, listening to sacrament on a baby monitor. 
It was another successful year and can't wait for next year!
