we took the boys to the snow to go tubing. it was mighty cold!!! 26*
here's bryan and eddie on the lift going up.
here's brandon. let me explain the bad pictures....i was not thrilled about having to ride the lift up to get to the top. i could tell brandon was scared. i couldn't show him that mommy was scared too! so i did what i could in my frozen hands to take his picture.
look---here i am with brandon! LOLthe ride took for---evah! seemed like an hour as the chair lift kept climbing up and up and up. but it really more like 10-15 minutes. it was breezy too so that didn't help my fears! it was so quiet that we heard the wind howling!
and look at brandon---he lost another tooth! BTW, does anyone want to help contribute to the "brandon will need braces fund'?
and this is what we did.
they're so cute in their puffy jackets! good thing we bought these before christmas for all the rain we've been having. they were still super cold! our huge mistake? not bringing gloves! didn't think to bring them---[as homer simpson would say...DOH!]
i wish we weren't such wimps and took the time to take more pictures. i was thinking this picture would be for our christmas card in december BUT, 50% of the family blinked. you win some, you lose some!after this picture, it was back in line to catch the ski lift back down. joy......
at the end of theday, the boys were so cranky, cold and tired that they didn't want to walk back to the car. so we sat and waited for daddy to drive the car to us. i was holding bryan in my lap taking his picture. look at that frown!
and brandon just closed his eyes and fell asleep for a few minutes.
i had major trouble falling asleep that night. kept on dreaming about the ski lift ride. i cannot do that again. give me a tropical island anyday!! TFL!

FUN pics...it's soooo cold here...it's a balmy 32 degrees right now...ugh.
Give me a tropical island too! :> I enjoyed these photos! Your so lucky they have a lift and you don't have to walk up the big hill like me! I will admit I am kinda shocked about the gloves thing but it must be because your new to snow! BTW You know how cold it is here? I think in Fahrenheit with the windchill it's -29!!!!!! It's sooo cold I have been staying home, made a card set!
Oh man! I give you kuddos for being so brave and especially in that weather! Looks like you had tons of fun despite the crisp air and snow. Only 59 degrees over here and I'm wearing gloves outside in the morning and buying thermals already..lol.
