New Year's Day Sledding

Michelle & Derek aka...Michelle's boyfriend {yep, I can call him that-they're exclusive} invited us to go sledding yesterday afternoon after our traditional Chinese New Year Lunch.  It's been awhile since I've been sledding {Student Ward activity.......and if I remember right, I strained some back muscles after a nasty jump} so I was very excited to go with my boys.

The boys had a blast; plus, it made them tired.  We were lucky enough to have my Mom come over and chill on our couch while Madi was taking a nap so James & I could participate in the festivities.

Here are some pictures :

Jordan
 Grandpa & Jaxson
 Now, you see this picture...no more than a couple seconds later did I not get out of the way & get plowed to the ground by these two.  I think I strained some neck muscles.  And what were the first things out of my husbands & sister's mouth......"IS THE CAMERA OK????"
Love...I tell ya :)
 Jordan-Luge style.
 Crash.....well, kinda...it really wasn't that bad.  I think James & Grandpa were trying to steer him towards the middle of the two dugouts.
See...we're all good :)
Derek
Dad
Jaxson crashed into Grandpa & knocked his scrab off his nose.  He didn't even notice anything was wrong.

Jordan-Skeleton Style

Jaxson-Skeleton Style {everytime Jaxson came down the hill, he always tucked himself in or covered his face-smart cookie}

Tyler and his family showed up too
Bryn did not like coming down the hill
She preferred staying at the bottom, playing in the snow
I gave the camera to James so I could take some turns down the hill.
Apparently, Derek crashed into somebody...I just thought it was a funny picture
Tyler
Jaxson & I

Jordan racing Uncle Tyler
Cute Bubba
It was great to be able to go and do this; one last activity before school starts {for James & the boys} again.  I'm trying to figure out another time for all of us to go again.

I haven't been sledding in years and this post totally made me want to go! Too bad I'm leaving for Florida in 2 days. Guess I'll just have to console myself with a trip to the beach. :)
