I never thought those words would come out of my mouth…Here’s what happened.<\/p>\n
Grandpa thought it would be a good idea to go tobogganing with allo his grandkids.\u00c2\u00a0 So R, and boy cousins M and D went off to the hill.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 There was a small hill where we warmed up. R is still a little nervous about tobogganing, so we had to start small.\u00c2\u00a0 D, age 2 and 3\/4 loved the little hill and was sliding on his stomach or back, whatever the brave little soul.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 M, the little daredevil was over at the big hill.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 We wandered over to the big hill.\u00c2\u00a0 R decided that she was in no way going down that “mountain”.\u00c2\u00a0 She finally did go down the hill with daddy.\u00c2\u00a0 We encouraged her to hang on tight and close her eyes.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 She loved it.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Maybe next year she’ll go on her own.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 After a bunch of sliding we went back to the little hill.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 D went down the hill, then R did too, and they met at the bottom.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 They had a little conversation, then they were distracted by a conifer branch.\u00c2\u00a0 R picked it up and switshed it around for a while, then passed it to D.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 D proceeds to knaw on the branch….which is when I used my line “Trees are not for eating Dylan”….\u00c2\u00a0 Wow, he tries everything.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0He also loves the novelty of eating snow.\u00c2\u00a0 I have to keep reminding him, “Only white snow, only the white snow”….<\/p>\n
I suppose I should have mentioned that these guys are from California, so this is pretty much the first time they’ve seen and played in the snow.\u00c2\u00a0 It is a bit hit.\u00c2\u00a0 I think they’ll be a little sad when they have to leave.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
