Sledding!

This is a very picture heavy post:)   We went sledding today and I took so many fun pictures it was so hard to decided which ones to put on the blog!  Both of the kids did great!  Athena jumped right in her sled and flew down the big hill all by herself as soon as we arrived.  She jumped off her sled at the bottom screaming "I want to go again!!" 

Here she is on the inaugural run:)




Alton started off a little more slowly with his excitement.  He had a prety serious look on his face for a while just taking it all in as we pulled him around on his toddler sled. 




Athena got daddy in on the action.  Check out her beautiful smile-precious!
 

We crammed them both into Athena's sled for a few trips down the hill  from just half way up. 
 

Always the mother hen:)
 

She was such a trooper and pulled her own sled back up the big hill almost every time. 
 

Everyone started to get tuckered out after a while though and started to rely on some daddy mule power to get back up the hill. 
 

As it turns out the thing that Alton liked the most was just sliding down the hill on his butt. 
 

Ena got in some snow angels before we left.
 Now most normal families would have headed home for some hot chocolate.  The after sledding treat of request in our household was straweberry shakes.  We used some of the awesome frozen berries from our strawberry picking extravaganza last summer.  A little taste of summer after an afternoon in the snow;)
