It was a first time for Madison – sledding on Thursday!!! I’ll admit, I was excited for her to go, but hesitant to bundle up and get outside. I don’t really know why; once outside, I usually thoroughly enjoy myself. Grandpa and Jason bought some sleds; Jeremy and I bought her some snow boots – I think a size too big, but then they will fit next year, too! We bundled up and headed out before lunch. Lil sis had to stay home with Grandma… just not quite big enough.
I was worried that Madison wouldn’t like it. Yesterday when she got snow on her face, she started crying. So, I had good reason to think it would be short lived and unenjoyable. HOWEVER, it was neither short lived nor unenjoyable. The first time, I took her down; the next time, Jeremy took her down.
BUT… that was all it took. The next time at the top of the hill, she said, “I want to go by myself.” So, we laid her down on the sled, and sent her on her way
Then, Jeremy went
And I went
And we all remembered how fun sledding really was. What a shame we stay inside on snowy days! Even some of those not dressed to sled joined in on the fun. Here is Madison hiking back up alongside Jason.
My favorite Madison sledding pic of the day:
In addition to sledding, we attempted a snowman. It wasn’t too shabby…
All in all it was a great time!
