Sledding

My mom invited us to go sledding up in the canyons today.  I was hesitant because Keith had to work today and I knew it would be a lot of stress and hard work for me to do it on my own.  In the end we decided to go and I'm glad we did.  It was a lot of stress and hard work, but it was a lot of fun.  The kids were all happy until the end so I think it was definitely worth it!

It was worth it just to see my mom laughing all the way down the hill.  She is such a fun grandma.  I hope I will be as fun as she is with my grand kids.

It was nice that the four older kids were independent so mom could help me with Hallee and Wyatt. I really appreciated her help.  I love how Hallee is waving in this picture.

I think Alexys and Caitlyn had the most fun.  They laughed the whole time and just kept going down over and over.

Caitlyn fell out and hurt herself once, but she got over it quick and went right back to it.

The boys had fun too.  Jonah can drive me crazy sometimes.  He was constantly in the way when other people were trying to come down.  The boys finally found some good tracks and had a lot of fun.

I love watching kids laugh and have fun.  Those big, carefree smiles are the best!

I thought Wyatt might be a little nervous with the bigger hills, but he wasn't.  He had a great time.

He thought it was pretty funny when he fell out of his sled.

I only went down a couple of times.  I took pictures most of the time.

It was sure fun to go down though.  I love going down with Hallee.  She laughs and screams, "this is fun" the whole way down.  It is so cute.

There were a lot of bumps.  Luckily I didn't tip over with the two little ones!

Jonah was excited to go down with grandma. 

They really caught some air a few times.

Caitlyn and grandma picked a hill that wasn't so bumpy.

It was a lot of fun!  I'm really glad we went.  We will have to go again when Keith can go.
