Sledding Fun

It has been so cold outside lately that you can't even go out without feeling like you have frost bite. The high has been zero on a couple of days. Brrrr. On Monday it was a warm 35 degree day, so we decided to take advantage of the warm weather (ha ha) and go sledding. The girls had a lot of fun. Niah didn't want to go because she wanted to stay in the warm house, but once we got her there she had a blast. Chloe said the sledding was scary and only went down a couple of times. She enjoyed watching some kids trying to snowboard off a jump and then crashing into the snow more than she enjoyed the sledding. It's a little hard to see, but this is Bryan and Niah after hitting a jump that they didn't know was there. They caught some serious air. Niah was mad at Bryan for taking her down the hill that way!

Niah and her daddy walking up to the top of the hill...

Here's Chloe watching the snowboarders crash. She was very intrigued by them.



This is what the sky looked like when we finished our sledding. It was so pretty. The picture doesn't do it justice!

I posted some videos of our little adventure below. It was great to get out and get some fresh air. I am counting down to warm weather. I hope it comes soon so that we can go out and play every day!

So Cute! Niah reminds me so much of you in our old home videos. The one where you and tam are playing in the snow and you are like "Dad! I gotta tell you something... watch!" Then you throw snow in the air. Haha so cute. Love you all
