Slip-Sledding Away!

Lots and lots of pictures - and I'm uploading them and typing this so I don't have to be quite so stressed watching the game - ahhhhh - what a shoot-out!

One of my favorite pics of Travis and Stephie -

And, not such a bad one of the two of us - I think my honey looks especially "smart-looking" in this shot!

I love this look on Sydney's face- the object in her sights is an ice-encased stocking cap that had been abandoned on the sledding hill....

Here's a grand look from the top - not a huge, scary route, but because of the ice and number of people, full of plenty of bumps - chiropractors must make so much money off of this course!

We all thought this was a beautiful shot of Bogey-

Michele was such a sport today - she was one of the few adults brave enough (and without a chronic neck issue!) to continue going down again and again-

We were trying so hard to get Syd's attention for this shot, and instead she gave John a kiss -even better!

I thought this was a good "capture the feel" shot of John sharing his pics with Chele as I took one of them and Bogey and Travis in the background.

Stephie's run down the hill was a little less than successful, but I sure admire her positive attitude!

And Michele looked to be having perhaps just a little fun- note the progression of her and Ellie down the hill together - and in the end, Ellie was still smiling.... (and of course, so was Michele!)



Woah, Nati - are your steering this thing?!


If these boys were just a little older (and not so daring...) we could have left them there all day - they were having SO much fun-


How blessed we are to have built-in best friends with these cousins....

(By the way, Michael had to return home for the past couple of days to complete a very important year-end project (work) - we plan on seeing his full smile tomorrow as we root for the Beavers in their bowl game!)
