Do you think the school might consider adding a lift?

The best hill for sledding is about 5 blocks away, at the little boys' school. And yes, it is as far down as it looks. (see tiny F)
Doesn't it look I am birthing a 4 year old in the snow?
It was great having all 3 boys pretty self-sufficient on their sleds. Someone the previous day had built a ramp near the bottom and G caught some big air (I just couldn't get a pic of him midair).
Sorry you had to work Jack, but thanks!

How many times did you make the trek back UP the hill? That's when I turn into the lazy mom.

Wow, that is a lot of snow! What a great hill!

That is so awesome.

Giving birth in the snow...to a four year old...that would take some pioneer spirit.

The college students used to build huge snow ramps on the Foxridge Hill behind the tennis courts on Heather Drive...the boys loved them. They looked so little flying off of those things.

I have snow envy, now.

you are so much more of a cooler mom than me. i'd tell the kids to walk on over to the school and have a good time while i stay warm and toasty inside, drinking hot chocolate. looks like such fun, though!
