New Year's Day

Right before New Year's we received quite a bit of snow. We thought it would be fun to take the kids somewhere new to sled, so we decided to go up the canyon to a place called Jolley's Ranch. We all had a blast, including the times we crashed or ended up on the wrong side of the barriers. It is amazing the amount of cold you are able to endure when you're having a lot of fun.

After returning home, we warmed up with mint hot chocolate and cooked a tasty salmon dinner. Believe it, or not, the kids love salmon. We also got to share the experience of watching The Wizard of Oz with Kennedy for the first time. She is now fascinated with Dorothy and Toto. Kennedy was not happy to find out that I once had the complete Wizard of Oz doll collection when I was little, and no longer own it.
