We went tubing at a place called Soldier Hollow with some good friends today. We got a groupon for 1/2 off and 1/2 off is good people.
This place takes reservations, so they don't over crowd the hill which is even better.
The little boys didn't get to go last time we went and we were super excited to take them down the hills.
Ryan refused to get on his tube hooked on the pulley to take you up the hill. Eventually I threw him in and yelled...."go go go !" to the girl running the line :) 3 tubes later he jumped out of his and they had to stop the whole damn thing. I talked the girl into letting him ride on my lap on the way up. She agreed "this ONE time" and that's all he needed. After going down his first snow hill at 26 mph....he was hooked.
We played for 2 hours, had some hot chocolate and went home.
SO much fun !

| Ryan and his Mommy J, the umbilical cord that he has hooked to her is hiding under his coat :) |
 |
| Nate on the other hand would have gone down alone and in front of everyone in line. Thanks to his super great big sister he got to go down with her almost the whole time. They both had so much fun. |

| Spencer and Cam blew bubbles into their hot chocolate to cool it down. |

| It didn't really work so we went outside and grabbed a couple of chunks of ice from the deck and threw them in . Cooled it right down. A little gritty...but what the hell ! |

Looks like so much fun. I've gone to a place like that once in Quebec. There is apparently some place near us but it's insanely expensive. I like the idea of booking a reservation so it's not so busy. Now if some snow would just stick around for more than a day... Was that real snow or fake stuff?
How fun!! I'd love to throw my kids down a hill! :)
So MUCH FUN!!!
You've almost convinced me that snow is a good idea to live with, but I'm sticking with snow is for visiting!
How much clothing are each of those children wearing? And what kind of small fortune do you spend in gloves and mittens? ;-)
They're all getting so big! Great photos too! I think you should save them for your Christmas cards next year. :)
so much fun!!! :)
It looks like fun and a source of a mommy heart attack or two!
That looks like so much fun and I am totally jealous that you got to play in the snow!
