Early February 2012
Seeing how the Springs never actually gets a bunch of snow, we had to go where there was. Alas, one phone call, and a full truck later, we arrived with sleds and snow gear to outfit the family at Uncle Jake's house. They had gotten about 20 inches of snow in Parker, which is 49 miles north of us. Oma had a wipe out before we even left the Springs, but she too was a trooper and broke trail and had fun sledding. All were wiped out by the time we were done. Abraham kept asking for more, again, more please! Solomon, unbeknownst to us, had bilateral ear infections and was feeling a bit under the weather but enjoyed being outside.
Catching a ride to the top.
Oma, with battered knee and face, broke the trail for the "little hill."
Mom and Abers about to head down.
Solomon's first sledding experience with dad!
Best picture ever. Pure joy.
Kandin also sledding for the first time and loving it. She was as excited as Abraham!
Uncle Jake
Sad Solly refused to leave his gloves on. He did enjoy riding this way.
The big guys working on a project.
Lots of pictures, but I don't think it does the day justice. Abraham asks each time it snows if it is enough to sled again. If we don't have enough here, he asks to call Uncle Jake to see if there is enough in Parker.
Love it!
