Well on Thursday we packed up the kids and went to Burch Lake. The family has a cabin in upper Wisconsin it is about a 6 hour drive from the house we left once the kids got home from school. We had another family come with us that has 4 kids as well they followed us up there. It was not that bad cause they were sleeping most of the time. When we got there it was about 1am and we had the wrong key for the front door :( it was -4 degrees outside it was super cold all the kids were sleeping while all the parents were trying to figure out how to get in the house. We could not go to a hotel cause we would have to drive about a hour to get to one. The hide-a-key was under about a foot of solid ice so we could not get to it. After about a hour of trying to find the key or trying to find a way to get in the house Mike said to try a credit card on the front door. Well guess what it worked!!! YEA!!! We woke up the kids and got in to bed. The house was freezing but it warmed up fast. The next morning we got up and took the kids to the ski hill. It was Lizzy’s first time on ski’s she had a lessons so it was good. She did a great job. I went boarding while everyone else was on ski’s it was fun!! We got back and had dinner and just played games and watched movies. We went up to the ski hill the next day as well and we did more boarding. Then I had to go back and watch Beverly so Becky could go skiing for a little bit. I got stuck on a lift for about 20 min. I felt bad cause that was 20 min less time for her to ski. The hill closes at 4pm so kinda early but that is ok I was tired by that time. We went back to the cabin and had dinner and hung out and went to bed. The next morning Sunday was Valentines day!! The other family that was with us went home that day and we wanted to stay another day and drive back on Monday. So we cleaned up most of the house and then watched Harry Potter and then went out to dinner at this little place. It was super tiny. They had great food though. We went back to the cabin and got ready for bed and watched Harry Potter 2. Lizzy fell asleep halfway through the movie and I was getting tired so I took her to bed and I went to sleep too. The next morning we got up and cleaned up the cabin and we left to go home. Yes a 8 hour drive home with all the kids awake we had to stop a lot and we stopped to eat dinner. It was a great time.
