The youth hosted a family sledding day up at Tahoe Meadows on MLK day. It was a beautiful day. It was warm, too warm for coats, and by the end everyone had shed hats, scarves, coats, etc. The hill was somewhat dangerous. Some brilliant nitwit dug a huge pit in the middle of a run that caused multiple injuries, until one of the more responsible YW took matters into her own hands and filled it in. There was also a fairly large jump, that looked pretty jarring to me, but was popular with the boys.
Lucy and Ellie:
Clara ready for action:
Lucy didn't do much sledding, because I think like me, she doesn't find it terribly fun. It is kind of painful. But here is one of her runs:
Some of Anders wild rides:
Tucker sat out for awhile. He was not happy after his drop into the pit:
Clara and Anders took a breather to enjoy cookies and hot chocolate:
Tucker finally recovered from his injuries and had at the jump:
You will notice Laurel hard at work filling in the pit:
Clara spent most of her time playing. Soffia and Clara made some hot cocoa art:
And then Clara, Soffia, and Kaisley built a snow fort:
It was a very fun way to spend a day out of school, and the not so cold weather was nice and gentle after a week in Hawaii.

Looks fun! I wouldn't mide a few sunny days in the snow.
Good times. I love the action shots.

P.S. No pressure or anything, but I want to see the Cafe de Valenine post. I couldn't see anything very well on Instagram.
That jumping looks painful! Fun day, though. And that Clara - making art wherever she goes.
So fun! The snow looks fluffy and delicious. And Anders is a complete maniac.
