Today was for sledding!!!!

Today was our first sledding adventure of the season... and it was great!  It was about 24 degrees I think, so it wasn't bitter cold.  We made it a little over an hour and the kids could have stayed longer... Mom has no snow pants like them, though, so my bottom was wet and COLD!  I know... party pooper!

 Jonathan ended up chasing the sled down the hill a few times

 Lanie rode with Mommy the first few times...

... then she was off and running solo   =)

Jonathan LOVED the ramp and had no fear!

Ben (and a neighborhood friend) got serious air too!

Lanie found time for her snow angels (her favorite!)

She could have easily fallen asleep, I think!

Afterwards, we headed home for hot cocoa... and grilled cheese and tomato soup... and we were warm in no time!  The rest of the afternoon passed with a family nap, a few Christmas movies, and now play doh time.  A wonderful family Sunday!

Now the kids are getting showers and heading towards bed time... then I plan to have a hot shower and a cocoa myself... a hot cocoa with a candy cane hershey kiss melted inside as recommended by Thrifty Decor Chick (her blog is in the list on the right).  YUM-O!!!!!
