Sledding



It is that time of year! The time when everyone goes sledding. I know that the world has posted pictures of their fun times, but hey, what can I say. It was the kids first time this year. (Yes, Alexis is almost 8 and this was the first time she has been) They have all loved it! The very first time that we went was in Price. Richard came with us. We went to Pioneer Park. It was AWESOME! Granted it was 18 degrees outside, but we were all bundled up and didn't notice. The sun was shinning too. It was so much fun! We were the only ones there. Wonderful! No fighting for a spot or worrying about getting run over (or running over anyone for that matter!) We went again a few days later. This time Dad, David and Jenny decided to join us. It was great times again! Even dad went down! (we got pictures in Price with the video camera and the 35, so I don't have any digital to add).







Later we went in Payson with the Callor/Maughan clan. Amy went down once, which was more than enough for her! The rest of us had a great time. It took us a day to find sleds though. Apparently you can't find sleds in Utah county. Brandon M. and Sara would race each other down the hill, though there was some holding going on :) Domenic was a maniac! He would troop up the hill and before we even had a chance to talk to him he had dropped onto the sled and gone down again. Skyler thought it was Awesome, and "Again" has become one of his favorite words!


We have been here at home too. There is an awesome sledding hill at an old shut down elementary school across the street from us. It was really fun, and the strairs made the trek to the top really nice!
This red hat is the special hat that Alexis made for her baby brother (the one that she made Christmas day from the stuff she got from Santa)! He loves this hat! He wears it everywhere, and again "My Hat" is one of his favorite phrases! He is crying because he didn't get to go down the hill when he wanted too! We had to wait for a sled!

You take such cute, fun pictures!

I love Alexis's hair ... so cute.

Yeah - we've experienced the "no sleds available" quite often. Gotta snatch 'em up the second they are on the shelves! haha.

Also ... WOW! on the hat making skills. That is pretty dang talented.
