Hello Big Bear! This cabin was our home away from home for a family weekend.
Kim's friends own the cabin, and it was an ideal location, close to things like shopping in the village!
A nice passerby took this photo of us with Scott and his family.
Everyone loved the Sweet Shoppe candy store. I wonder why?
After Adam and Melissa joined our group, we took a quick trip up to Bear Mountain where Adam, Amanda, and Valerie wanted to go snowboarding the next day. As you can see, snow was sparse, but they make more each night.
Look who found the Sweet Shoppe the next day! Reese and Maddie loved the hand chairs.
The kids also loved this big Teddy Bear in one shop.
Candy shops were sure popular with our group---this one had lots of fudge choices.
The village even had its own Clydesdale pulling a wagon.
In the snowboard shop I found ORANGE sunglasses----woo hoo! After snipping off the tag, they were great for the bright Big Bear sunshine.
The girls got their snowboards.
Then we stopped at a cute little park in Fawnskin, which is right next to Big Bear. Reese and Maddie loved all the fun things to play on or in. Obviously the adults loved it too!
After a full day of shopping, eating and playing in the park, Reese had a great time collecting as many pinecones as he could find by the cabin. He counted 100 of them!
The adults, however, wanted nothing better than to relax. We got cozy and played games, watched Forest Gump on TV, had popcorn and had lots of fun.
The next day Adam, Valerie and Amanda hit the slopes. Unfortunately, Valerie hit them a little too hard and came out with a fractured elbow------poor Baby!
It was mostly a great weekend, and Duane has this Tee Shirt as a remembrance!
