Ice Capades

We decided to go on a little adventure today out to the City Reservoir for a little sledding. Some of the snow we got on Friday was still on the ground but there were a few grassy patches peeking out. We invited cousin Puk Puk to join us.

Billy took these pictures with his phone, so some of them are a little dark.

Here's Abby coming down on our tube.


Trudging back up the hill: Abby carried it all the way by herself!


Sometimes it's fun to go on your belly.

The reservoir was frozen over. We started breaking up some big chunks along the shore to build an ice castle.


A big hunk, I mean chunk!
