We live about 2 blocks off the state trail and there is a very good 'ravine' area. This is where we take the dogs to run and blow off steam... it's also filled with a couple big hills. Dad has been taking Nece there pretty much every weekend and sledding with her. One afternoon in December (probably the weekend before the holidays) we bundled up Franny, I grabbed my camera, grabbed the dogs and went on a family winter adventure.
WOW! That kid has FUN. I will say that I was very surprised to see her do as well as she did, and go as far up the hill as she did! She likes to go by herself and with her dad. And then she wanted to go with me. Okay, let's roll.
Go ahead, ask Nece if she has fun sledding with mom. I'm pretty sure she'll tell you 'nope, mom doesn't know how to stop.' AND it's true. I probably haven't been on a sled since I was maybe an early teenager... I don't know how to stop. Obviously, it's not by putting your feet to the side and getting the snow spray all over your face, or should I say getting it ALL over your childs face. She can stick with dad, and I will just take pictures. (okay maybe not, I'll do it again... we only have a bazillion inches of snow, we just need this zero degree temps to go and warm up some).
We had a great time, and I'm sure we'll do it again, just as soon as that weather warms up to the point that it's semi-tolerable. Some pics from our little outing:
