Snow Day


Few weeks ago we actually got snow in the valley. This year that has been a rare occasion, so we decided to take advantage of the situation and ran the boys out with the sled. As you can see they had a great time. 


The first run Kyle jumped on the sled and started his run. Immediately he veered for a big jump in the middle of the hill. In the back of my head I heard Kyle crying already and the end of our sled riding. He went flying off the side of the jump the sled completely away from his body then landed on his back. "Here it comes..." I thought. He turned around and started laughing "That was awesome..." After that Noah wanted to go off the jump too (I declined).   


After a few runs we ran around making snow angels and pelting one another with snow balls. Snow days rock.


Mommy and Megan were at home (little too cold for Megsie).

Sledding


It was a perfect day for sledding. We headed up to Donut Falls, the sun shining, no clouds or wind and with all of our gear including Tommy...big mistake. Before we even got a chance to breath in the sweet mountain air a cop was there giving us a warning for bringing our sweet, pooping and peeing dog up the mountain. Yeah, NO PETS ALLOWED. We were in a "water shed" area where they don't want animals using the lakes and rivers as toilets. *sigh* Who knew?! So while I stayed, Adam took Tommy ALL THE WAY down to his parents house in MURRAY! Well, we weren't going to let this ruin the most perfect sledding day of the year. It was seriously gorgeous and Kyle, who got a sled for Christmas that still hadn't been used, was anxious.



Speaking of Kyle, this kid is CRAZY. As you can see, we have no pics of the kids actually going down the hill on the sled. This is because Kyle insisted on going down on the tube by himself at warp speeds. During this time I am doing my best to keep up with the human bullet by running next to him while Adam waits for impending doom at the bottom. This kid was catching major air and giving his mother a heart attack. He did biff it pretty good once but it never stopped him. Poor Noah was a casualty of the Kyle's craziness. *BAM!* The kid was flat on his face before we even realized what that blur was.


All in all, we had a great time and look forward to another outing.
