Shelley and Ryan before the trip begins.

Group shot. why do the girls seem so small and the guys seem to be increasing in size?

The Subaru on the road. Look at my board! That's the most action it saw this weekend.

We arrived at the cabin at night. This is what we saw in the morning... lots of green, little white

Everyone, but Lis, Babak and I, went off to snowboard. We stayed at the cabin to "prepare the MHO dinner." Here we are... preparing....

Yup, still preparing

.... and still preparing...

Okay okay...we actually did do some work. Here's Lis, making the crostinis.

And then we stopped preparing because all this white stuff started falling from the sky

Babak only took this picture of Lis to bug her.

Here, Lisa and I compete to see who can cry first. She chops the scallions and I chopped the shallots. Alright, I confess. This picture was completely posed. We actually just ordered take out and stuffed stuff into the oven.

Then it really started to snow more. Maybe all that green stuff will disappear.

Ah, fast foward 12 hours... you'll have to go to Howard's page to fill in the blank. This is the morning after where most of us ran outside to unbury the cars.

Lis was so excited to drive her x3 in the snow. Grrrrr...!

Group shot inside the cabin. Who's dumb idea was it to cram into that staircase?!

Shell and I as extras in the story of Ryan and Babak.

Last group shot of the weekend. There's that white stuff again.

(in low announcer-ish voice) Allen creeping through the white jungle searching for that elusive shot.

Ahhh, yes. Classic Jenn.

Ahhh, yes. Classic Allen. with Shelley in the supporting role.

What?! What's Shelley doing in this picture? It was supposed to just be Ryan and Howard.

Das Beast! The X3's winter name.

Haha... this is Mark's car making a quick getaway with five of the guys. Leaving the rest of us behind to clean up.

And so we did....

Yup... Shelley needed a pillow to help her clean up.

It was hard for Babak and I to clean up as we were blinded by a flash.

And alas, we left Tahoe in disrepair, completely covered by that white stuff.
