Sledding

We took Kaylee and Levi sledding at a huge hill near our house. It was super fun. We brought the two neighbor girls who spend lots of time with our kids too. They had a ball. I have seriously never seen Kaylee smile so much. Sometimes she can get a little slow when trudging up something like a giant hill, but she was so excited she was even running up the hill. Her smile was adorable.

It was a little icy and one time Levi started wandering around a bit precariously saying something I didn't understand and acting determined to walk down the steep hill. Like I said it was icy and steep, so I grabbed him before he could take a spill down and experience the long fall. Anyways, it probably would have been ok, but it's sort of my job not to find out :) 

Eric has talked about taking them back there even today after daycare.

We said to ourselves - why have we not done this before?
Answers:

• It was frigidly cold up till now
• Or overcast
• Or super windy
• Last year our little guy was just too little to do this!

Suffice it to say our plan is that we'll be back! It was sort of like a free amusement park!

Yesterday was a very nice day. We had a little bit of snow today so if they go maybe it won't be too icy.

Levi wasn't as sure as Kaylee while sledding. He went with his dad willingly twice, was coerced by his dad twice and then went down with his girlfriend (he's got a crush on the neighbor girl) like 4 times.

Fun was had by all and I was happy to come home with no injuries.

I purposely did not sled. I did not want to find out what that activity would do to my already agrivated back. But I did plenty of trudging up and down the hill to get my work out. :)

Oh yes, and I did forget my camera. A common occurence. Apologies to all. Next time I'll remember I hope.
