January 29 . . . and I finally took my kids sledding!! I've been wanting to do it all winter but with the crazy weather, not much snow, and sick kids, it just hasn't happened! But today, we finally did it. And we had a blast! We went to my parent's neighbor's hill. It was the perfect size - big enough to get going pretty fast and go pretty far and small enough that Samuel could climb back up it without needing to be pulled in the sled!! :)
I love that they have almost the same exact expression on their faces!
They even got brave enough to try it together and without an adult! I think their faces say it all. :)
Samuel and Grandma having a blast!
What a difference a year makes! Last year Samuel was not interested in sledding at all . . . especially on a hill this big! This year he couldn't wipe that smile off of his face.
The pile of people at the bottom of the hill.
Grandpa and Samuel
Aliyah wasn't a big fan of sledding. She preferred to stay at the top of the hill and just wave to everybody that went down to the bottom. Whenever I'd ask her if she wanted to go down the hill with Mommy she'd say "no" really quietly and shake her head back and forth.
I did talk her into going down the hill a couple of times. She rarely cracked a smile though. We'd cheer really big for her but it didn't seem to make a difference. Maybe next year!
Just a man and his sled :)
Samuel loved slipping and falling as he climbed up the hill. He'd do it on purpose just for the laughs!
Gotta love a Grandpa and a Grandma that will go sledding with their grandkids!
Aliyah going down the hill again! Doesn't it look like she's having so much fun? ;)
Telling her what a big girl she was for going down the hill with Mommy. I don't think she bought it. She didn't go down again!
Fun was had by all!!!!
