Slidin' & Sleddin'...

Levi was anxiously waiting for his ride across the lake w/ this Dad on G'pa J's sled...
Levi & Lyssa enjoying Great U. Howard's old "ski boose"...

Off goes Aj & Levi...

Humourously, Aj & T's extra "stuff" on the back of the 4Runner looked a bit like a mini sled...but it wasn't...

Gma's J's old place...with Larry's new cabin...

First load to get a ride back up the hill from the riverside...

A. Wanda, Lyssa & Mars...

G'pa J giving the 3 girls a ride back up...

Trista racing by in a cloud of snow...followed by Aj & Levi...

And another peaceful run down the hill for A.Wan & Mars...

Aj & his 3 kids...attempt #2...which was much more successful than #1...

Uh oh...someone isn't happy! Poor Mars - she's makin' it look awful here with that pitiful face & 1 big crocodile tear...

Meanwhile, Aj & Levi were having a bit more fun...laughing all the way...

Even when they got a good face-full of snow at the bottom!

Miss Mars liked just hanging out at the top until someone offered her another ride down...and up!

What a sweet profile on this sweetheart!

And she was having a great time with Papa J on the deck...

guess she thought it was funny that G'pa was pretending he was going to throw her off...

Miss Lyssa getting a ride back up from U. Glen...

Dad watching the last launch off the deck ramp...what a great idea...

You kinda get an idea of the size of G'ma J's old hill when you see the little specks - Levi (L) in the snow and Lyssa (center) by the river's edge...

Aj bringing his family back up...

Aj & Dad prepping for a dual run...

Ah...the perfect sliding day...mild, sunny, calm...perfect!

All was going well here...and then...

the landing was...not so smooth!

What a help...a five from your hubby on the way down...and possibly a push from Levi...

Candy cane shadows...yep, it's the holidays!

G'ma J cuddling Miss Mars!

Ha, yep...those are Trista's feet in the air...the result of her not so smooth landing on the riverbank...

Here goes Dad again...

Aj & T posing for a pic for Great U. Howard...this is how he & Great A. Em used to ride the old Bravo & ski-boose!

Alyssa & her Dad

Levi & Mars...

And along the trail in the woods, here we find a declaration of love - U. Glen & A. Wan!
