Serious sledders...

We have had a great time sledding at Grandma & Grandpa Hoopes' house this winter. As you can tell we are "serious" about sledding...goggles and all! It's always fun when we can sled with cousins. We use Grandpa's snow machines to pull us up the hill & then down we go. Yesterday there were some great crashes. Brynn & Tori had a fantastic wipe out, which caused some tears. Later when we were talking about it at dinner, Brynn said, "I cried because my goggles were full of snow & it was really cold!" Tori said, "I cried tears of joy." Ha, ha, not so much at the time of the crash, but glad she now thinks differently. Brett, Matthew, & Brian had a great crash too. We love it when we can go back in to a warm dinner that Grandma Hoopes has fixed for our "serious" sledders. We re-live it with lots of laughs as we talk about it at the dinner table.

Brynn is ready to roll!

Tori likes making snow angels.

"See ya at the bottom!"

"Again Dad, Again!"


Jadie's favorite spot these days is to play under the computer counter. It's a fun hide out.

"Ooops, I spilled some. I'll just clean it real fast before Mom sees."
