Sledding Fun

We realized that we hadn't taken the kids sledding yet this winter, so we thought today would be a perfect day to do that. While we were in California, there were a few warm days that melted the snow, so that when it got cool again, the top layer of the snow was pure ice. Then we got about 4 inches of fresh snow on top of this ice, which made for great sledding conditions. The kids really enjoyed going down the hill and only complained when they hit some snow and got their faces covered in snow. After about 45 minutes the coldness started settling in and they both started asking for hot chocolate and a warm bath, both of which we were happy to give.






Ahh...now we are nice and warm!
