Lucy had a great time too...and sledded as much as anyone but for some reason I don't have any pics of her going down....prob b/c I was holding her when we went down.

The next day we went to a bank off College and sledded down its hill.

Karate Kid

Henry recently started taking karate! He is having a great time!

It is the CUTEST FUNNIEST thing ever watching a bunch of 4 year olds do karate!!

SNOW DAYS! FUN DAYS!

It has been FREEZING and snowing the last week.

Last weekend we went out sledding.

First we went on the hill in our neighborhood. Everyone loved it...even Lucy and Hunt!

Then we went to my friend Shelly's house where they were sledding behind the 4-wheeler.

It was so fun! I left with some bruises!
