I missed a couple days of school so we could go to the cabin in Sunriver like last year. We celebrated thanksgiving and Christmas all in the same weekend. Daddy and mama dropped us off at papa and grandma's on their way to go see lala who had a big back surgery. We rode to Sunriver with papa, grandma and aunt Linda came out from PA to visit too. Uncle Nick and aunt Lori got to the cabin a little after us and we had my favorite soup, chicken tortilla. Daddy and mama came a little later while we were watching the movie The Star. The cabin was huge, with 6 bedrooms,a hot pool, ping pong table and bunk beds for Bella and I to sleep in. It snowed a bunch the first night, so we went out to play on the golf course with sleds, snurf boards, and bikes that were in the garage. Daddy would pull us behind the bike and we went really fast, it was awesome. Uncle Josh and auntie Chelle came while we were napping and then we had a big turkey dinner and decorated gingerbread houses. We all had our own to decorate and they even had stained glass windows and lights. Grandma made them all and put them together before, so we could just decorate them. They all turned out really cool. The Bone family joined us for the decorating too. We stayed up late sitting in the hot pool and playing games, but it snowed even more that night. So we went to the tubing hill the next morning in Sunriver. It was a lot of work to carry out tubes to the top every time, so we didn't last too long. Next we went to the playground and had an epic snowball fight! We went back to the cabin to warm up and nap before our big Christmas night. When we woke up, we all made sugar cookies and decorated them before a big steak and shrimp dinner. We drew names this year and made homemade gifts. I made Kenzi a braided blanket and Hayes made me a wooden airplane that he painted and built. We also played the famous Santa game and I won the final gift which was a wallet with money for the new Grinch movie and a Grinch key chain. We had a great time playing games, building puzzles and playing with our cousins. We had a big breakfast and sat in the hot pool one more time before packing up to head home. We went up savage creek road after we got home to cut down our Christmas tree.

I helped pack my bag to go to the cabin in Sunriver, I'm so excited because my friends (cousins) are staying in the same cabin with us. I didn't really remember aunt Linda when we saw her at papa and grandma's, but I did give her lots of snuggles and talked to her a lot! She told me I'm just like my mama when she was my age. We went through the whole house when we got there, and it was huge! There were lots of toys and games to play with too. It had a piano that I liked pounding on when I walked by and the whole house was decorated for Christmas already. I had so much fun playing in the snow and sliding behind daddy's bike. I also found a bike about my size and rode it through the snow. We warmed up in the hot pool and then took a big nap. I was so excited to decorate my gingerbread house and I took my time and was the last one at the table decorating so it would be perfect. I was really sleepy after all of that playing, but woke up ready to play in the snow again. I want so sure about the tubing hill at first, but then I raced Lane every time and we went again and again. I played on the snowy playground, but tried to dodge all of the snowballs that were flying everywhere. I loved decorating cookies too,I think I cut out and decorated more than anyone else. Auntie Lori even made me a Grinch cookie that was huge, it was yummy too. I played the Santa game for a bit, then enjoyed watching everyone get dressed and undressed in the Santa suit. It was so silly! I drew Shea's name and made her a washer necklace and bracelet that I think she really liked and Kenzi made me an awesome fairy house. Grandma and papa got Jace and I a karaoke machine, and I can't wait to sing a song and put on a show. The morning we were leaving we all played games together while daddy and mama packed. Wyatt and Lane helped me when we all played uno. We took big naps on the way home and I'm so excited to decorate our Christmas tree soon!
