Logan Canyon

Last weekend, some friends invited us to come up to their family’s cabin in Logan Canyon. Nate had just finished his finals so it was a fun little getaway to relax and spend some time in the snow. They have two little boys each a few months older than ours, and they seemed to all get along and play well together. We got up there just before dinner on Friday and decorated sugar cookies, then played some fun games after the kids went to bed. After breakfast on Saturday, we got geared up and went out to play in the snow. We went over to a little hill the kids could sled down and Nate and I snuck off to do a little cross-country skiing, then came back and sledded with the kids. After lunch and naps, we ventured up the canyon further to a place where there was a lot more snow, and a lot bigger hills. We didn’t have too much time there before it got dark, but I don’t know how many more times I could have walked up the huge hill carrying / helping one of the kids anyway. We left straight from there so we could get home before it was too late, but it was a great weekend – nobody else around when we were by the cabin and we loved the quiet beauty of the canyon and the snow.

Bennett was SO excited to get to wear his own cross country skis! He was mostly just walking in them but loved it.
