The snow kept falling the whole night long after I snapped that photograph in my last post. The next day the children spent as much time as possible in it, including some time sledding with our dogs. I wasn't able to get some action shots of our dog team this time around like I did last year. My slow, pregnant self coupled with the harsh noon sun made it a bit of a struggle to get any photographs at all.
Off they go!
A few seconds later (notice the toboggan is empty and the children are all spun around facing the opposite direction).
Everyone was fine. The snow padded their fall. K decided to try it on her own while L and C came to hang out with me and watch.
Right after this picture was taken the dogs decided to run straight at L and I and knock us over.
Rascals
Our dog team
Nara couldn't keep up with the boys and ended up faceplanting into the snow. Kevin unattached her and just let her run alongside after that. Really that is what she prefers anyway.
C and L decided to pamper her and feed her some snow.
Nara wasn't too interested so L decided to eat it himself...
...and share with C.
Kevin decided the dogs needed to get rid of some of their energy before the children tried again. K helped him prepare.
Off goes Kevin on the tobbogan! That wore the dogs down fast.
C following the toboggan tracks in her Jan Brett hat (They are still my favorite hats!).
Ready to go home and warm up. What a fun time it was!!
