Sledding

Oh my goodness did we have a hoot today *grin*.

The icy hard snow provided some super slick and zippy conditions for sledding! So much better than fresh snow and boy did the kids fly :)

Of course where else would we sled but on our own hill LOL. My mom just loves to name all of the trails and roads heading up the mountain behind her house :)

It was a little to scary for me to watch my youngest one go down alone so big brother made a sledding train and they went down together. You should have seen their faces! One was laughing so hard he looked like he was crying and the other screamed with sheer terror as they rocketed towards the end of the hill...

and with good reason!
There isn't far to go at the bottom before you bounce right over the bank and into the creek and field several meters below. This is why I didn't want the little guy going alone and with his brother behind him he could act as the brakes so that they stopped in time *grin*.

We must have spent a good couple of hours out there as they raced up and down the hill and my little girl skated on the ice puddles around the road. She only took one trip down the hill and that was enough excitement for her day. I don't blame her :)

Hope you had a wonderful day to!
