Beautiful day for sleding

Today in Anchorage turned out to be a beautiful day to play/sled in the snow. Temps were in the mid 20's with a few inches of snowfall throughout the day. We couldn't have asked for better weather for our winter activities.

Here we are at the top of Hillberg Ski resort on Elmendorf Air Force base. We decided we should learn on the small hill before trying to take on the big boy hill. The kids loved it but they didn't like too much climbing all the way back up after the slid to the bottom.
Jake is a true master of the balance arena. It didn't take him long to figure out how to steer and go very fast. He even had a couple wipe-outs but jumped right up and ensure everyone he was ok.
Here is Amanda and I getting ready to race to the bottom, she has the advantage since Lynn is pushing her. What a blast it was
today we have some shopping to finish up and see what we can show the kids that beautiful Anchorage as to offer. They are having soo much fun they haven't even asked about Santa in the last several hours.
