Over Presidents Day weekend we went and stayed at the cabin in Cannonville. The Dalley's stayed up at Bryce Canyon for Caleb's birthday and we went and played with them everyday. Rubys Inn was having a big Winterfest Celebration and had activities for the kids to do everyday.
We also swam a lot in the Rubys Inn pool. Anna and Emma didn't want to turn around for the picture. They were giggling and giggling.
Jackson loves to swim!
They finally turned around!
The hot tub was a big hit.
We signed up the kids for an art class, a craft and a pottery class.
The craft was making wind chimes.
Emma, Anna, Isaac, Elise, James, Jackson, Caleb, Matthew and Will. The only one missing is Matie.
It was also fun to watch cartoons in the Dalley's hotel room.

Sweet cousins.
The boys love to play games on Calebs i-pod.
Jackson pondering the outside world.
More boys.
Walking over to the pottery class.
Everyone got their own chunk of clay to create something with.
They all made neat stuff!
Corey was probably the most intrigued - he asked lots of questions because he has attempted to make his own clay and pots before.
I forget his name now but the teacher was a famous potter and author.
In the Ruby's Inn store looking at all the polished rocks.
The art class was also taught by a famous person whose name I forget.
Jackson painted Bryce Canyon and the teacher was actually very impressed! He couldn't wait to give it to Grandpa as a gift.
Anna's pretty creation.
Isaac's picture was great and he gave it to me as a gift.
On Sunday we all went to the Cannonville ward together and then went over to Grandma Bonnie's for a couple hours and had some lunch.
The kids love playing with her toys - many of them are the same ones Kristi and I played with when we were little.
Grandma and Grandpa came up on Sunday.
Anna and Uncle Corey time.
Little Matie Mae.
Matthew was really into the cartoons.
Back at the hotel room Grandpa and James playing with the guitar that my cousin Melanie just gave us.
The Laubs came up Sunday evening and we went to go look off of some points at Byrce. It was REALLY cold!
Some of them hiked down the trail.
Back home again!
