Weekend at Uncle Jim's...

Our longest sledding trail was up near the rock wall behind the house on the right.  Grace and I sled from there to the trees in the front of this photo.  Super Fun!

We played nearly every game in the house.... Connect Four (Wesley has a crazy fast version), Sorry!, Battleship, Monopoloy, Fishing, Jenga....

...and "Crash in the Walls" which is very similar to the XBox racing game.

We ate well.
Grace loved helping Allison in the kitchen.

Allison and her groupies.

I don't know why we don't have this spice in our pantry at home!

Grace munchin' on cookie dough while she tacked on more reading hours for her school's "Book Blizzard."  The 2 kids to read the most hours in February in each class get a free book, and the top reader in each grade gets a bowling party.

Wesley and Jim flying helicopters in the house.

On our way to the Inn, we passed this herd of deer.

After everyone went ice skating, Wesley, Grace & I played at the Inn while the others went X-Country skiing.  Here's Wesley racing through our obstacle course.

A favorite destination- the Inn's ice-cream parlor

The kids left notes on the slate chalkboard wall for Jim & Allison.

We're so thankful that Jim & Allison let us come stay with them and have some fun in the beautiful Catskills.

We loved every minute.
