The day after Christmas, we met up with some of our Nielson family for a fun afternoon of sledding. Gwen had to be woken up from her nap, so she wasn't terribly excited about being out in the cold, but Adam and Tessa had the time of their lives!
When we first arrived, Tessa was too scared to try anything. Mamma finally convinced Tessa to slide down the hill on her bum. Mamma was wonderful and slid down with her. That's the two of them playing at the bottom of the hill. A while later, Aunt Lisa was about to go down the hill on a tube and she grabbed Tessa and went down the hill with her. When they got to the bottom Tessa yelled, "That was totally awesome!!!" We couldn't keep her off the tubes after that!
Gorgeous Aunt Lisa and sweet baby Milo
We kept trying to take Gwen down to see if we could cheer her up, but she wasn't loving it.
Beautiful Aunt Briette and Gwennie
Uncle Matt and Uncle Alex started to get a little crazy with their tricks. I was sure we were going to leave with a head injury.
She was a happy girl and would have stayed all day!
Uncle Ben and Clementine
Clemmie wasn't so sure about being there at first either, but after a while, she warmed up and wanted to keep going down the hill.
Right before we left, Adam decided to be a little dare devil. He rode down on his belly, specifically trying to hit a jump. He nailed the jump and got some serious air. We thought he would be hurt, but he loved it and did it over and over again. We had such a fun afternoon!
