Elliot's one and only run on the hill

Trash can lids are pretty good in a pinch
Yeah!! Aunt Polly and Uncle Eric made it up from Salt Lake City despite the horrible weather! They got a nice pocket of no snow all the way along the interstate, Praise God!! Then it dumped and we got to go and have a real blast sledding on a perfect hill 2 blocks from our house! Another perk we didn't know about when we bought the house. Eric has a cool camera that he documented our trips down the hill and getting ready at home. Elliot only went down once and then couldn't be convinced to go down again. Adrian had a blast going down with all combinations of people. After the first day of sledding on trash can lids, we got some toboggans from Target. They were fun, but the real fun happened after Grandfer bought some flexible flyers. We raced down on our bellies and avoided the bum jarring bumps on the hill that jostled your tailbone, spine, and head. Adrian rode down on my back piggy back. What fun! Thanks, Dad! Even Esther braved the weather on the hill to come cheer us on. If anyone is interested in sledding without going to the foothills, the bird sanctuary on Maple Grove and McMillan is AWESOME!
