getting ready to ride up the hill in the sled

here we go- up to the top.

Annnnddd... the war wound, from taking the last jump on the last run a bit high and flipping out of the tube to scrape up his face. Mama yelled shake it off shake it off on her way to retrieve him (then starting frettting when she saw blood and scrapes and what appeared to be a black and blue coming on....)


Although he went down every run by himself, and almost always hit a jump, catching some mighty air, only the last run resulted in a flipping over accident. And all caught on video by mama...perhaps some of the better video will make it online sometime

Tea time with the neighbor

Tea time with Isabel, and REAL tea cups/saucers, tea pots and creamer pitchers
