Winter wonderland

This is what our Saturday morning was like today...sledding in, what is referred to as "the village" by all the neighbors. So the "villagers" were out in mass numbers this morning.

mommy, ryan and brayden. Notice who always has their eyes closed? But he loves it and can't wait to go again.

Alex, Brayden and Ryan in the wagon.

Me and Shauna

Mommy and Ryan on the linoleum sled...we ran out of regular sleds and had so many people that some of the neighbors (uh hum..Jonathan) decided to get old linoleum. By the way, it was the best slide out there for sure...except that your butt felt every bump on the way down.

Again, Ryan with his eyes closed!

Oh, I was wrong...the one shot with his eyes open, but notice there is no sled. He's on his bottom scooting down inches at a time. He so got that from me!I lovingly refer to this as the Brayden sandwich shot.

Big boys left to their own devices...we adults had as much fun as the kids. These are some of our neighbors Jonathan and Brian.
And following suit are Stephanie and Shauna...can't leave the girls out!

So all was well until Ryan threw snow and it hit Brayden in the face. Then it started snowing again and Brayden had had enough. So we came home, dried off and had some home made broccoli and cheese soup! Yum. Now Tim is watching Goodfellas with Chris and I'm about to embark on a 90 minute treadmill run in the garage while the kids nap. We've got poker and MMA tonight at our house. It should be a fun way to survive the snow storm...well at least for us it is one.
