Sledding Debacle

Our Christmas Eve sledding trip started and ended well.  Everyone was so excited to be there and the conditions were perfect! 




It took no prodding at all to get the kids on the tube and send them down the hill.


But.... do you see what we didn't see? And as Ben said as I was taking this picture, "Uh oh."


Too bad I didn't keep shooting pictures.  I kinda forgot as I was watching my kids fly through the air....


I like this picture.  They were looking at the offending ramp hidden in the snow hill.  It may not have been that bad if they had been expecting it.


They flew like birds, beautiful birds.


Coming back up the hill for another run down. 


Madelyn was up for the challenge.  She had flown like a bird before at this sledding outing (even though it wasn't mentioned).  Greyson sat out for a little while, but he warmed back up to the idea of riding down the hill  He even went by himself a few times.... I love me some good sledding!

Oh this looks fun! You made me chuckle with your pictures of the ramp. I've been surprised by things like that too while sledding! I'm glad everyone was OK and had a great time. :)

Knowing that everyone is OK, so funny! That Madelyn is a little dare devil, isn't she? I'm sure Grey will be following in her footsteps, much to Mom's shagrin, I'm sure. :)
Love you, sis!
