Boxing Day

We had the BEST sledding day today. We were headed up to the mountains but found out there was a lot of snow at G&G's. Although they were out of town we enjoyed playing at their place with Peter and Lonnie and kids. First Ray pulled the kids around, then we found the perfect size hill small enough for the kids to walk up themselves but big enough to make it worth the hike up. Once they were done with that Peter had the 4wheeler out. After a few times around there was a nice flat and fast track and the kids LOVED it. I took a ride and laughed the whole way, except when I went over a frozen pinecone - ouch! It was just too much fun. What we thought would be maybe an hour of sledding turned into an all day thing. They built a jump and it was pretty funny watching them try to get some air and never quite getting there, although I wasn't the one flying up - maybe it felt like more than it looked. Best quote of the day heard by Lonnie : Porter: "Kate can I go down the hill first" Kate:"Well you are King of the hill"

Started off slow on the mini hill




Lunch time in the back of the van.


Video of Kate sledding "That was Awesome Dad"



This is Ray trying out the jump.


Ray again cruising around the whole track. It was scary riding on here trying to tape, I had the hardest time holding on since I was sitting backwards I couldn't tell which way Peter was going to turn but I didn't fall off so we have this lovely video. This is a long video but the air he gets at the end is worth it! (:

Ok, I finally had time to watch the videos. So fun! I LOVE the video of Kate. She sounds so grown up when she says, "That was awesome, Dad!" Hilarious!!
