Christmas cabin fun

We made it to the cabin! And not only that....we had a white Christmas! I think the county we were in was the ONLY county in Oklahoma that wasn't under severe winter weather alerts. Mike and Julie's house in Tulsa was due to get 5-8 inches of snow. The kids were a little bummed about no snow, but then on Christmas eve...voila...snow! Granted, it wasn't much, but it was some! And was still there in the morning so everyone could go out and get a little on their gloves!


Actually the day before it snowed, all it did was rain. So, we set up the Wii that Mike and Julie brought and had a great time. Michael says the Wii is a great age equalizer. He's right. Case in point....David was a definite "contenda" in almost all of the games we played. He even beat Pop in table tennis! It was so cute, he would just flap his arms back and forth and somehow managed to hit the balls!
Here's the crew engaged in a bowling (red pin bowling) contest.







After watching all the fun, Pop couldn't stand it...
He just had to get up and give it a try! See what I mean....age equalizer!!

What was a real hoot was hearing the under 6 crowd "coaching" the over 35 crowd as to how to bowl, bat, hit, etc.
Julie and I had a great time too playing on the Wii fit. The hula hoop game was a real blast...but NO CHANCE of photos on that one!! :-)
