Snow Sledding Fun!

December 23, 2008 By Laura 2 Comments

Christmas Eve is tomorrow, and our house is brimming over the edge with excitement!! I am sure it is in your homes and families by now too!  The spirit of joy and celebration is definitely in the air here, as we prepare for the reflection of Jesus’ birth.  It is solely the focus in our home and family, if you know what I mean.  ; )   To see our children relish in the true joy of what Christmas is all about, with such overwhelming child-like excitement and happiness (which is so contagious), as we embark on all of our Christmas traditions, is such a fulfilling feeling as parents.

But on Saturday, there was finally enough snow to really play in!  We went sledding!!  Well, Kid-Daddy and our kids did—I took photos, which is still playing to me! What made it even more fun, is the snow kept on falling while they played in the winter wonderland.  It really made it all the more exciting, if not a bit of a challenge for the photographer. lol. Still got some fun shots though.  My frozen shutter hand was worth it.  It thawed, with a little pain.  So just sharing some  of their snow-fun-filled day before Christmas Eve and Day is upon all of us.

This one below cracks me up the way J is amused by the rope having a ride too!

Only A would wear her glasses sledding. And wear a hunter’s hat too, no less.  She loves that hat.

There were lots of giggles echoing in the snow hills valley!

And lots of climbing back up for another run…..

Now am I the only mother that LOVES these faces with a squished brow from winter hats??  Sometimes, I tie it just a little tighter than necessary, just to gush at how cute they are!

Who needs sleds?  Not my fools.

But I love my fools!  They just make for more laughter!

Hope you enjoyed seeing the fun with us, without getting cold!

    What great snow pictures. Looks like you guys had a blast. I agree, taking pictures is playing for me, too. So if they think we are missing out on the fun because we are “just” taking pictures, THEY are the ones that aren’t getting it. lol

    Amazing pictures, as usual. I hope my kids can see real snow like this sometime in the coming years. Won’t be happening here in Texas, though.

    Merry Christmas to you and yours!
