Snow Much Fun

This winter has been so warm and dry, until last week when we finally got some snow. Today we went to Longfellow school to go sledding.


When we first got there Rebecca was pretty grouchy and didn't want anything to do with sledding. She wanted to go play on the playground. I had her come to the hill with me so I could take some pictures. She decided to go down on her bottom. I went down the hill laughing a few times. I got on the sled by her, and she climbed on and LOVED it.


She then went over to Corrine and the 2 of them went down the hill together dozens of times.






We tried to get Rebecca to go down by herself but she wouldn't, so we finally tricked her and got her to go down by herself. After that she only wanted to go by herself. She LOVED sledding, the faster the better.



Ammon meanwhile was going down fast on his own. He tried snowboarding, but preferred the fastest sleds.




Simeon is getting good at snowboarding. He was having a great time with Joe.

Since it was in the low 40's the snow was wet and slushy. The kids all took off their jackets and gloves, and by the time we left they were soaked.




After sledding we met dad at McDonald's for lunch and then came home and washed all their snow gear so it would be ready for school in the morning.
