Christmas Celebration #3

I didn't go swimming but Jaime, Rayna and I walked over to the indoor pool to check it out and to watch the kids and grand kids swim - the water was actually pretty warm - and the viewing area was even warmer!!  We stayed for a little while but it was so hot in there that we were sweating so decided to go to the game room and play some ping pong!

The YMCA has an awesome game room with ping pong tables, Foosball tables, pool tables and shuffleboard - we turned on some music and had a great time!

 Jaime headed back to her cabin to get dinner put in the oven while Rayna and I went to the museum - it was a house set up in the early 1900's and was very interesting!  After a great meal of lasagna, bread and salad, we headed over to play Bingo - all 15 of us!

 For a little while I thought we were going to be the only ones there but soon it was packed!  Standing room only!


 We had a great time playing for an hour with all kinds of different scenarios to win - many of us won - they had a prize box with little trinkets for the kids or you could get a certificate for a hot drink, cold drink or brownie at the Rustic Cafe in the lodge - we all had fun there!

And how awesome to get a group picture - this is something that rarely happens!

 Whoops - this picture got out of order - this was Happy Hour and Jaime went to her cabin to get her dish and look what she brought - a snowman cheese ball - cute as can be!!

 Later that evening, I went down to the other cabin to play a game - Jill popped popcorn and we enjoyed watching Parker play with Lego's at the other end of the table!

 It snowed a little bit during the night!  Gary did the scooping and then 3 of us went for a walk but it was darn icy out so we ended up just walking in the snow!

 After our walk, I enjoyed coffee and another of Jessi's cinnamon rolls - what a treat!

 We got a late check out which was super nice!!  Glenn headed over to the lodge by 11 to watch the Broncos game - the Savages and Smiths left for home and I helped Jessi and Gary pack up!  Then we went to the lodge to relax with Gwyn and Papa while Gary and the 2 kids went roller skating!  Gwyn decided she was going to stick out her tongue at me!!

 Here is the awesome fireplace in the lodge where Jessi and I sat and relaxed!  What an elk!!

And then it was time to say good-bye to the YMCA!  What a fantastic weekend - and after comparing notes with everyone, it's very possible we may do this again next year!!
