Grandma planned a fun treasure hunt for at the cabin. She hid 20 brown bags out in the forest and all of the grand kids got to go search for them. I thought I would just waltz out there with Rosie and find some bags but they were hidden really well so we all got to search. Once found we had a white elephant type gift exchange with the treasures. The kids all had fun finding the bags and playing with their prizes. I think there is a picture of each of the grand kids in here. Well 16 of the grand kids, not the 3 babies and not the 3 oldest 🙂

We planned an early family get together this year with my parents and siblings. We wanted to celebrate my Dads 60th and it is also my parents 40th wedding anniversary this summer. The first of May is right in between those 2 events and it was the best time for the Alaskans to come. Anyway all 12 f us kids were able to clear our schedules and spend some time together at the Eggers cabin in Pioneer, CA. We love being together. I’m glad that we all get along so well and EVERYONE makes the effort to have family time.

This cabin was like camping with a house – – tons to explore and play but nice bathrooms, showers, and recliners when you wanted them.
