So here they are, sledding in the Jemez Mountains outside Albuquerque.
Jordan in his cool shades
This is where we go sledding...a nice bowl-like area that we've gone to on 3 or 4 different visits now. It's big enough for the bigger boys to have fun, while not being too dangerous for the little guys. Win-win!
Joey
Joshua
Jonathan, tired of waiting for his turn with one of the 3 sleds, decided to go down one of the steeper sides on his rear end.
I just love the expression on Jordan's face here!
Waiting his turn
Josh tried sledding on his backside as well
Joanna's first run, from the safety of Daddy's lap
She wasn't sure about it at first, but she was smiling by the end.
Josiah trying to decide if this whole sledding-without-a-sled thing is worth the risk
Jon about to take off
Once Joanna discovered how much fun it was to sled, she pulled her princess status and got her brothers to pull her back up the hill in the sled. She sledded at least a couple dozen times, and I don't believe she ever had to walk back up the hill!
Another intense expression!
Little miss princess
Josiah
Joanna sledding with Granddaddy...look at that expression of pure excitement on her face!
Josiah getting ready to brave a steep slope on his bottom
And he's off!
Jordan
Daddy couldn't be shown up by Jonathan and Jordan, who were going down the steeper side slopes repeatedly. Here he is about to give it a try...
And he's off!
Yes, he was airborne a couple of times!

I'm really glad we got in some snow play while we were in the southwest...now that we're back home in the northeast, there isn't any snow around here. We get a bit now and then, but not enough to stick around. It's a far cry from our record season for snow last year! Oh, well...I can be thankful we aren't having to shovel any!!

Your family is so cute. We got no sledding snow this year. Lame. (Glad to see on FB that you finally did!)
