the big chill

It has been just freezing here lately, and the snow never stops falling. But it did not stop these two...

from wanting to play outside. On Saturday, we went to Renee's for a little sledding in her backyard. Mark makes a big hill, and pathways that look like a bobsled track {only in Ontario can you sled in your own yard with the snow you shovelled off your driveway}! And you should see his tunnels in the front yard {the snow was piled higher than our SUV}...R wanted to sleep in one overnight {he might have been a bit chilly, it was -29 that day}!

Here is Mark launching R...

{I know the photo would have been better taken from in front of my child...but this was the best angle I could get, through the window, considering my location inside Renee's warm kitchen}!


Note to self: must go buy snowshoes asap...

Your children are now official Ottawans! They have played out in, and survived, a -29 winter day!
I'm sure we will have that hill for about 6 more months so come over anytime. LOL
