Sliding fun

That's right, it's called 'sliding' and not 'sledding' here in Newfoundland. I think we're going to have to call it sledding since it's almost impossible to overcome a lifelong habit. Anyway, we got about 5 inches of snow late yesterday evening, and then another 2 inches or so overnight. It's the single greatest amount of accumulation we've had so far this winter. The kids have never been sledding before today, and I really think Kyle and Natalie enjoyed it. Brandon--not so much. We have no backyard to speak of, but we have friends who live outside of town, and they have an awesome yard with an even more awesome sledding hill right smack in the middle of it. They invited us over this afternoon to do some sledding, and we had a great time. Here are a couple of pictures. The rest of them are on our Shutterfly site if you want to check them out.
