Pineview weekend

We are just getting back from another weekend away.  We spent the last couple of days up in Huntsville with Stewarts having a family reunion and we had a great time.  Dave and Sheila rented a bed and breakfast called Snowberry Inn.  We need a place like this in the family that we can go to whenever we want.  Although then we would have to make our own breakfast every morning instead of having bacon, eggs, French toast, pancakes, fresh fruit, and cereal made for us.  We arrived on Friday afternoon and the kids just dove right in and never stopped until we left this morning.  Most were too busy to even sleep, they couldn't waste any time.  We went to dinner at Huntsville Barbeque Friday evening.  That was  such a fun place.  We sat outside at picnic tables and listened to a band while we ate yummy food.  The kids got to run around on the grass and it was a perfect evening. 

After dinner, we went back to the Inn and played yard games.  It was nice and cool and a fun stress free environment and I just didn't want the evening to end.  We moved inside and played games in there for a little bit, but eventually we did need to take a little bit of a nap to prepare for a fun packed Saturday. 

Saturday was a full day, after a yummy breakfast, we went for a hike.  We had no idea what kind of hike it was when we saw the sign, but it was beautiful and went right along pineview reservoir.  The trail actually led us right back to the Inn, so most of the littles ran across the road and they were back playing games and eating lunch, while the rest of us turned around and went back on the same trail back to the cars. 

The weekend forecast was 70% of showers for Saturday afternoon.  Well, we all hoped and prayed really hard that the storm would stay away because we were heading for the lake all afternoon.  Well, it worked and it was a beautiful sunny afternoon.  Perfect for playing in the water!

After swimming and dinner, we set up a tournament.  The games were horseshoes, Bocce, and ladder golf.  We ran out of daylight and horseshoes had to be eliminated because we couldn't see, but on the lawn there was light from the cabin so we finished Bocce and ladder golf with the little guys Dallin and Jake taking the championship.  At first we had an age limit of at least 12 to be able to enter the tournament, but all the adults were so tired from the day we opened it up to a couple of little guys and they go and beat all of us.
