Valentine's weekend at the cabin

So... me and Brandon decided last minute to go to my aun't cabin in the Uintah's with my family for Valentine's weekend. Family included tyler, megan, mom, dad, cousins madi and tiana, uncles bob and tim and aunts lana, tami, and marsha. The cabin was fairly large but it gave only 4 people privacy...but im getting ahead of myself. Lets take it from the beginning! So saturday afternoon me and brandon left Logan around 3:00. We stopped at his parents house to get him a sleeping bag and then got some treats for the trip. At this point we were excited for the weekend ahead of us and I was very camera happy.

I even took a picture as we got our order form Mcdonald's from some poor kid haha.

We then drove to Evanston and back into Utah and found the cabin a couple hours later all thanks to my mom's very detailed directions :D . We actually ran into my parents once we passed the gates and then we loaded our stuff onto a mini trailer and drove it up on the snowmobile.

Once we got there, it was pretty dark so everyone just watched the Proposal and played cards. That night was HORRIBLE. First, I was SO excited to play this new card game with everyone called Hand and Foot but NO ONE was paying attention to the instructions and Brandon kept going "no, thats not how I've played it"...bless his soul, I was telling him that I had played it before too so I was right and all he said was "okay babe you're probably right we can play it your way" but I was grumpy and stressed and so we all stopped playing.

Next, me and Brandon spent tons of money on treats for us but Tyler kept taking stuff without asking, which pissed me off even more! I settled down when we watched the Proposal with Brandon and everyone though.

However, once I tried sleeping (back to the privacy issue) I couldn't because I was sick AND everyone was being loud and obnoxious. Next, we had toilet issues. We couldn't use the indoor toilet because the shower was overflowing from a possible clogged/frozen pipe and everyone, I mean EVERYONE was up til 2 AM thinking of ways to solve the problem. Me and Tiana were trying to find the humor in the situation so we drank some Nyquil and took some picture by the toilet, planning on putting in on myspace and naming it "The Tragic Toilet Mystery".

After finally getting to bed, I was awoken at 7 by more talking... about the toilet situation. Seriously? HAPPY FREAKIN VALENTINES DAY, I was SO mad and SO annoyed. However, after that everything got better :D . Me and Brandon got ready and went snowmobiling. It was so fun! I hadn't been in a couple years and Brandon had never even been on one so we had a great time. After that we got Megan and Tyler to come sledding with us. Brandon brough his snowboard so I went down on that a couple times, too. After awhile it was just me him and Tiana and we decided to go down the BIG hill. I had the snowmobile so after they went down Id go get them and bring them to the top again. Brandon held onto the bar on the back of the snowmobile and would sit on one of the sleds on the way up- I kept looking back cause I thought he'd biff it but he looked like he was having the time of his life!

After that, we went back to the cabin and watched the DaVinci Code and played Skip-Bo (watch the video!) I still got stressed out about it but I had fun (And I won!).

We decided to go home that night cause I didn't think I could stand another night there, but overall I'm glad we went! We even had time to have our own little Valentine's Day once we got back to Logan and went to go see The Lightning Thief. Brandon thought it was kinda silly but I LOVED it!! :D
