Have you ever seen the movie “A Christmas Story”? Actually, that’s a silly question seeing that it annually shown on a 24 hour cycle on TBS. Anyway, do you remember the scene where the mom is getting the little boy dressed for school in the cold and it takes about three years to get him ready? I am here to announce that it was no exaggeration. This was our first sledding trip of the year and we were exhausted before we left the house. Once we got to South Park, it was nothing but laughs, cold fingers and more laughs. And this was just on the tiny hill. Elizabeth got into the act by somehow managing to take out both of our children (see the second photograph). Even though they both got the occasional mouthful of snow, they were having the time of their lives AND they got hot chocolate with marshmallows when we got home.
