Sometimes, you just gotta take a break..and that's just what we did when we all hopped in the car and headed North to the cabin for the week.
Pops and Nana Kit made our week a treat- they spoiled us with love and attention (plus, an amazing sledding run) and we actually had a little snow to play in. We went skiing, sledding, hiking, ice fishing, snowmobiling (a first at the cabin, thanks to our neighbor), read books, watched movies, and bathed in the sauna. We had so much fun!

Osa (my brother's dog) and Lena (my dad and Kit's dog)
P.S. One night, we almost lost Osa! Osa woke me up to go the bathroom around 1:30 am. When, I opened up the door to go outside, I instantly heard timberwolves howling. They sounded like they were next door to the cabin! Osa, who is completely deaf and old, took off running through the woods like she was a young pup. It was at least -10 degrees out and I had no choice but to run through the woods in only my pajamas and smartwool socks. I tackled Osa finally and hauled her back into the cabin. Just minutes later, the wolves started howling again. There is nothing more cool than listening to wolves howl, in the middle of the night, under a full moon. I'm just glad they didn't eat Osa!
