New Year's Eve


We had a wonderful New Year's Eve getaway in northern Michigan. The weekend included a sleigh ride to see elk, then an 11 course dinner in a beautiful log cabin. The weekend also included a cross country ski endeavor with Amber (her first time). Here are Amber and I, ready to hit the trails.

Then it was time to get ready for the big sleigh ride. It was scenic and chilly (and just a little stinky:-)

Here's a picture of one of the sleighs. The draft horses really got a workout!

We finally arrived at the log cabin where our 11 course dinner would be served. It was so festive....and warm.

Here's the first course ready to be served. We had to pace ourselves--a new plate of food every 30 minutes--whew--my stomach hurts just thinking about it!

Darin and I in front of the fieldstone fireplace. Happy New Year everyone!
