"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

a sledding date with kaine and halle :)

Nathan had the idea to go sledding tonight!  I wasn't quite as sure about it...mostly because I don't love putting tons of clothes on to be freezing in the snow. But Aaron and Jill graciously agreed to watch Layla and Daisy, so I had no excuses :)  And actually, I'm kind of kidding...I was excited to go with just Kaine and Halle!
 
 
At the top of the hill...




Kaine loved it!  He would just leap onto his sled and fly down the hill.  (forgot to mention...the hill we went sledding on is huge, and the snow was totally packed down.  So we would seriously fly down and we had to drag our feet to avoid ramping into the parking lot!  Crazy!)

 
Halle loved it too...for awhile.  The third time down she went so far that she crashed into our van!  She didn't get hurt at all, but I think it scared her a little :)  So after that she just wanted to sit on her sled and watch us.


I decided to quit and hang out with my Rae Rae.  It was fun :)

 
We told them we could stop and get some hot chocolate afterwards...you know, since we just spent over an hour freezing our toes off.  But go figure...they both wanted ice cream!  Brrr...


Love these two!!  Thanks so much, A and J, for watching Layla and Daisy!

Looks like a great time. I'll have to admit though, I'm glad you got the snow instead of us.

looks like so much fun, but I differ from dad (of course) on the snow comment. As I look outside here at very bleak looking blahful boring dead brown-green grass, I think some white pretty snow sounds pretty good:)
love you
