Sledding

The day after Christmas the heavens literally opened and dumped a foot and a half of snow on us. It was awesome! (Aside from all the shoveling I had to do).

There is a sledding hill not too far from our house and we took Emmett out for the first time. After snow sprayed all over his face and soaked him on his first trip down the hill, he wasn't too happy and decided that sledding is not for him. We tried a few little trips down smaller slopes, but he screamed hysterically every time. So I guess sledding is just a little too scary for him this year. We ended up going to a fast food place and letting him play on the indoor play structure a while in an attempt to make up for the terrifying experience.

Soaked after his first harrowing ride down the hill. Nobody likes that, poor guy.

It's "a little bit scary".

Excited to hear that we'd be leaving soon.

Bethany, on the other hand, loved being outside. We didn't try to pressure her into too much sledding though, and she didn't get a face full of snow, so that's probably why.
