Our Sledding Adventure

Yesterday, to celebrate the new year, Todd decided our family needed to go on an adventure.  So after some major warm clothes preparations, hand warmers, and treats, we headed up to Tibble Fork in American Fork Canyon to brave the single digit weather for some sledding fun!

The kids rode down a few times on our laps

 and Todd got to go down bigger/longer hills alone too.

 It was SO COLD, but also SO BEAUTIFUL

 By the end, Maddie was too cold to smile.  It's a good thing Dad had prepared us well.  She was wearing four layers and had hand warmers tucked in her gloves.  I can't imagine how frozen she would have been had it been left up to only me to keep them warm!

 Madeline did have fun despite her face in the picture above though, just listen to her giggle as she goes down the hill:

And we all enjoyed hot chocolate and donuts once we finished sledding

 It turned out to be so much fun.  A totally wonderful family trip and a memorable way to start the new year!!
