Sledding!

We have had quite a bit of snow over the last week. We decided to take advantage of it and go sledding! Aunt Theresa and Caroline came over and we made a mad dash over to Nickol Knoll. (Yes we went sledding on an old landfill, but really where else can you find hills in Chicago?)

Ben and Abbey really love sledding. You can't really tell from the pictures but Abbey laughed the whole time down, every time.

As soon as we would get back up to the top she would immediately sit in the sled and want to go again.


Eventually she got pretty tired and just wanted to lay in the sun.

Caroline was quite the skilled sledder. She wanted to go down by herself the very first time. Ben was a little more hesitant but eventually he went with Caroline, and then by himself.

Here are the two proud champions of the mountain.

Nickol Knoll is great because it has its own lift! :) Many thanks Aunt Theresa.
