The Cabin and a twisted ankle

Thanks giving means lots of Turkey dinners and food, so in reality people over here get 2 Christmases. !!! no gift giving at thanks giving but lots of food. Its a big holiday and aaron had the best part of a week off.. So we went to the cabin, its Grandmas cabin, Granddad and Grandma built it and its been a family thing since then Granddad Fran passed away in 97 i believe so its a very special place for the family now. Its actually 2 cabins one small one that looks like a typical cabin not wooden tho its like a red house with a tall pointy roof. Cabin 2 the big one its more like a house.
Aaron and i invited another couple . Robert and Nina with their girls, Megan10 and the twins Courtney and Gabby. Robert and Aaron grew up together and they are very funny together.. Well Robert like to wind Aaron up and its funny! Nina is super cool to she is on Body4life too.. i still have to write a blog about that for you so you understand when i refer to it. This is Robert below Nina's Husband and Aaron's childhood buddy, can you see the mischievousness written all over this face?


We got to the cabin on Thursday eve.. This was a working weekend for Aaron and i really. the cabin has water pipe line that needed to be laid we had already been up the Monday to measure how much to buy.. it was then scrambling up this mountainside that i injured my healing ankle and the rest of the week i was limping.
We arrived to hot steaming soup thanks to Wendy (A's mum) and then made our way to cabin one is a 2 min drive up hill. We all crowded in to the cabin found our beds and settled in. It was around this time i decided to go to the truck to get my bag. Did i mention that there is no electricity at the cabin, we have gas lights and otherwise it torches or flashlights. no one responds when i ask for a torch! the road is paved but there is a steep curve and th forest floor well in the dark this is recipe for me to have some kind of accident and sure enough im walking confidently to the truck and suddenly i loose my footing and my ankle rolls over onits self and i hear a CRUNCH!!! the pain is so intense everything goes black and i see shafts of white lightning in my eyes. Im lying on the ground rolling around in pain and Tootsie jumps on my chest and Sherman starts to lick my face. All i can think is were is Lassie when you need him.. After a few minutes Aaron appears followed by Nina apparently they could hear my dainty calls for help.. !!! I thought i sounded like distressed animal but ill stick with dainty thanks.

The rest of the weekend i spend feet up while everyone works..! Great impression to be made on the inlaws right!! thankfully i had the girls and Nina to keep me company. The weekend was full of great food. I had my first Pumpkin Pie.. OH my gosh its like heaven in a pie..nto to be confused with crumble thats mushy this is more like a cheese cake consistency but not.. which is good as i hate cheese cake but its the best way to describe it to you.. i also has pear crunch which is like a crumble but with granola and oats on top. I also had polish sausage and sourkrote which is ok, even better with mustard, its like a huge hotdog and instead of onions you get the shredded cabbage that looks like onion..
i spent the rest of the weekend playing card games and hobbling around the cabins.. it was a really nice weekend we watched WALL-E you have to see it if you havent its so cute!! we also made smores, which are marshmallows and melted chocolate between gram crackers. I didnt like the crackers they are like digestive biscuits but square and were to thick, they over powered the yummy gooey chocolate and marshmallow .. below is one of the twin perfecting her cooking technique LOL


well thats a quick upadte ill add pics later hope you are all well... miss you
