Big Bear Getaway!


Last weekend Kyle, Katelyn and I headed up to the Big Bear cabin for some fun, games, Sea Dooing, and laughs with our friends. Kyle and I went up on Thursday night so we could get everything ready for our friends to come up on Friday. Casey, Meygan and Kylie arrived first followed by Mike, Jessica and Ella, and then Cesar and Patty. Each family was in charge of preparing a meal everday so Mike and Jessica kicked off the weekend with an amazing BBQ meal!!! We threw our diets out the window and enjoyed cupcakes, pizza, sandwiches, chocolate covered pretzels, pancakes, and Patty's home made mac n'cheese. Meygan brough Baby Einstein DVD's and the girls loved hanging out and watching them. It was a late bedtime for everyone that night because we were having so much fun talking and laughing.

On Saturday and Sunday we spent the day out on the Sea Doos riding and tubing. We took turns watching the babies so that the parents could have a little bit of fun on the water. Katelyn spent the whole weekend sleeping so she wasn't difficult to watch! I think the altitude made her sleepy. While I was sad that she didn't stay up and play more, it was nice to have the opportunity to hang out with friends and go tubing on the water. Then on Sunday afternoon we took family photos and watched the sun set on the dock. It was so relaxing!

We headed home on Monday just in time to drop Katelyn off with Grandma Circle, Auntie Leah and Uncle Brendan and then Kyle and I met up with Casey and Meygan at the Angels game. They spanked the Yankees 14-1 and the only excitement of the whole game was the fight that broke out! I've never seen a fight at a baseball game, it was awesome! After a weekend spending time as a family, it was nice to end it with a date night. Thanks everyone for a wonderful weekend! Kyle, Katelyn and I had a fantastic time and I've already started planning the next trip up.
Love, Kyle, Alissa and Katelyn
