Sledding


We finally got to take our boys sledding!
We have wanted to go for the past 3 years, but it seemed like every time it snowed ( if it ever did) it melted before Terry's next day off. So this year we took advantage of the only good snow we've had.
My boys LOVED it, even Dylan. He laughed the whole way down the hill and couldn't get back to the top fast enough.
It was so nice to get outside to play and get some fresh air.
One of our neighbor families were on there way to go sledding just as we were leaving, and stopped to ask us if we knew where a good spot was, and so we invited them to go to Willard where we were going. We were not sure if they would show up, but they came and this kids all had a great time playing and sledding together.
When I wasn't racing my kids down the hill, I was busy taking fun pictures of Landon going off a little jump and the rest of my kids having a good time.I love taking fun pictures of my kids. This picture of my neighbors kid hiding behind a tree ready to throw a snowball was one of my favorite pictures of the day. Overall it was a fun day with my awesome family. We have been doing pretty good lately Landon is still in piano and loves it- he is very good for his age and it is a fun talent we have in common. Sometimes we like to sit down and play a song out of his book together. We try to see who can play it the fastest. Usually we are both laughing the whole way through it. Landon is a great big brother, he is very protective of Dylan and a good friend to Logan. I really don't know what I would do without him. Logan is really liking his kindergarten class. He is an amazing little artist and really puts a lot of details into his drawings. The other day he drew a picture of a caterpillar, I thought that was what it was and so I asked him if that was what it was. He got a big grin and was so proud that he drew it well enough that I was able to guess what it was. He got a big art set in a case for his birthday, at the time I bought it I thought it was a little pricey, but he uses it daily and really loves it, which makes it completely worth the money. Dylan is talking up a storm and says the funniest things sometimes. One of the things he says is " What the heck" I laugh every time I hear him say it, because he's still such a little guy. Dylan has been a joy- he always has a big dimple smile on his face and is a very loving little boy. His brothers are wrapped around his finger and would do anything to protect him. But Dylan can still hold his own. When it comes to wrestling he can take down both of his brothers. He is a very strong little kid.
Now that we had the chance to go sledding, I am looking forward to spring. I love to start my plants indoors for my garden and in the next few weeks, I will be doing that. I have been painting my front room and my kitchen and that has been a big job, but I hope it will all pay off in the end, and will look great!
I am very grateful for my family and all of the blessings I have.
