Long Weekend trip up North!

Last weekend I got on a plane (all by myself) and went up North to visit DH's family. I was so excited to hear that they had a winter wonderland waiting for me!
Every year his Grandmother hosts an all girl ornament exchange. There is a different theme every year, and they draw names. I love getting into the spirit this way!
When my plane landed my DH's sisters were waiting to pick me up, then we stopped by a few stores on our way to the house.
It did not take long before we got on our snow suits and hit the hills! I thought I was gonna kill myself, but it was so much fun sledding down the big hills in the front yard. She lives on 10-12 acres, so we had many to choose from. I was a little worried about my diet, I've done really good, and have lost about 12 pounds, but well, you just can't diet while at Grandma's house! After sledding, my worries melted, as it is quite exhausting climbing back up, we took many little breaks!
I can't believe that these people have never made snow ice cream! I made some, and it was yummy! I stocked up on some good string cheese and cheese curds, had to get another carry on, but it's well worth it. Our plane was suppose to leave Tuesday, but there was a slushy storm coming through, so we got canceled, and then we left on Wednesday. Even though I missed my girls, and wished that they could have come to see so much snow, I was not too dissapointed to stay an extra day! Hee, hee!!!
Oh, I've also got some news of the mice, will have to post about that another day!
