Sliding

We went sliding on an awesome hill with some friends. About 50 min. north. We had sooo much fun. Mia got tired part way through but she is almost back to Mia-normal. I know there are a lot of pictures to follow but I wanted to show eveyone how much fun we had. AND that we have snow here too!

Even the big kids played!

We had a few snowball fights, none I won I must say! I had a ton of fun playing around in the snow. I also have to say that snow down your back doesn't feel any better at 35 then it did as a kid.

Cody trying to be a gentlemen.

Cody was trying his hardest to pull Leach up the hill. His dad decided to help him out. Loook at the smiles on everyones faces. This is a great picture to define the experience.

Fun was had by ALL!

We had a fantastic time sliding. It was nice to play in what I call eastern snow which we don't see much.

Tyler trying to go down standing up.

Tyler was urged by his father to try this. He tried a few times, each time going a little further.

Lexy was trying to pull Mia up the hill. Leach wanted to go and help Lexy. Mia decided she didn't want to carry the sled so she threw it down the hill. Leach went to get it and as soon as she handed it to Mia, Mia sent it down the hill again. Joe Schmuck (what the man said I should refer to him as) went down to carry the sled up but by this time Leach was frustrated with Mia and he ended up helping pull Mia too.

The end of our day of sliding!

By the end of the day the 3 girls were crawling up the hill. Lexy had lost her glove and Mia went to get it for her. This is a blessing I'm sure I will have to point out to them repeatedly as they are growing up, that they have 2 best friends to play with whenever they want.

Where we've been!

I know it's been a while since I've posted. Life has been CRAZY the month of Dec. Amelia was sick and ended up in the hospital for an extended stay because of a ruptured apendix. She is better now. I'm so thankful to the poeple who had her in their thoughts and prayers and to those who helped me in this trying time. We felt loved by family and friends near and far!

Skating FUN!

We had an awesome time Sat. afternoon. We went skating, well some of us tried to skate( Savannah, me after some persuading)! Fortunately for me and you, there are no pictures of me trying to skate. Here is a picture I took as Scot helped Savannah try to get her footing around the rink a few times. See if you can tell which one of the girls is taking a break? I can't wait to go again, I had forgotten how much fun it was.
