annual "squad" cabin trip ::: greer, az

 Every year, Heath and his squad mates would make an annual guys trip up to the mountains.  Two years ago, they started inviting us gals!  Last year, the kids were able to come with us, too.  They had a blast.  We are seriously so lucky to have the best friends ever!  We are all more like family ... really.

Here's a few of my faves ...

It's 29-degrees out and the kids HAD to go fishing!  It was so cold and windy.  It was miserable, but Heath helped the kids put the bait on their hooks (is this even the right description?).  I am soo not an out-doorsy kind of gal!   They didn't have any luck.  Addi was bummed.  She was really looking forward to catching and scaling a fish for dinner.  What??!!  Who's child is this??

Heath's birthday was the Sunday of our trip so we had to make it special!  While he went to get Scott and Linz, we all decorated with balloons and wrote messages on them (our fave thing about Heath, funny stories, etc) and made his fave cupcakes.  I think it was a success!

We took the kids boarding and skiing at Sunrise.  Me and Heath took a picture where he proposed to me one year earlier ... under the Lodge on top of the highest mountain.  He played the same "Marry Me" song, too.  Got down on one knee, just the like first time.  It was sooo darn sweet!

Logan DJ'ing .. these guys loved Logan!

our crew!

When we got back from boarding, we came back to a present on the door step ... a bear had eaten some of our pizza that we had left outside!  Guess he/she didn't really like it because there was just a bite taken!
