Sledding and Other Snow Adventures

It was a given that we were going to go sledding since there was snow on the ground for Christmas. The three brothers all posing for a picture before the big pile on and subsequent wrestling match down the hill and at the bottom. Good times, good times.



Annie had never been out in the snow and she was most underwhelmed by the whole experience but she was a good sport and let me take her down for one good run in the snow tube...Darla reminded me "no jumps Steve!"





Deb made a sweet snow angel when we went over to our childhood sledding local, affectionately called "the Big Hill" Not quite as big as we remembered but we still managed to nearly zoom into sheds and sticker bushes. No relatives were harmed in the making of these great memories.

Near to my parent's house a huge playground has been constructed and conveniently called "Annie's Playground." It was necessary to check it out for future trips back East and for a cursory slip down the not so slippery sliding board/tube contraption.



On an adjactent property was a beautiful old green barn that simply glowed in the setting sunlight. We were fortunate to catch a few of the fading rays...stunning against the snow.



Here I am with Annie and the new scarf that Darla made for me and my new Christmas hat...thanks Love!
