City Sledding

When winter hits, we spend entirely too much time inside the house. That's not to say that we are really outdoorsy people to begin with. Weekends just seem to be devoted to running errands and laundry. When Declan declared on Sunday that he wanted to go sledding, I stood up and started grabbing their winter clothes. 20 minutes later we managed to make it out of the house and we headed to the hill at Payson Park.
It's always crowded there but it's not too bad. Grace doesn't like her sled so they mostly took turns on Declans. They tried the main hill a few times but eventually wandered off to the side where the trails weren't broken and made some of their own. The ice crust on top of the snow made for some fast sledding.
I even managed to to get a picture of Grace sort of.
We only lasted about half an hour because it was really cold. It was a quick ride home to have some hot chocolate.
