A Job Well Done

Aaron recieved the District Award of Merit at last Friday's District Eagle Recognition dinner. It was great to see him recognized for all his hard work in the BSA program. Now I just need to sew the knot on his shirt!

Winter Sledding Fun

Every year when the snow hits the ground, the kids insist that it is time to go sledding. Most of the time we just take them over to Grandma and Grandpa's hills, but this year we just had to try our hand at the most famous hill for sledding in the valley....Jack Rabbit Hill. No, the name does not conjure up any images of sledding greatness, but according to everyone under the age of 16, this hill is where all the action is. You have never truly hit the sledding slopes until you have tried your hand-and other parts of you-at sliding down this hill. The verdict from the kids afterwards? It was AWESOME!

They should really put a lift here. Don't you think?
