Smartest Dad Ever


We have a pretty steep hill in our backyard, which is awesome for sliding down but not so fun climbing up. Ella and Zoe also have a pretty creative and clever Dad. He put up a rope tow (similar to what you would find on a Bunny Hill at a ski resort) to help make the 'getting up the hill' part as much fun as the 'sliding down' part.




And once Zoe and Ella are at the top . . .

. . . often times they'll just sit down . . .

. . . and slide down on their bottoms -- no sled needed!!!

They still like to use their sleds though : )


So day or night,

this is probably where you'll find Ella . . .

. . . or Zoe : )

I think we might have to have a sledding party in January!!


And for your viewing pleasure . . .

Gosh your yard looks just HUGE in this picture! Glad the girls are making use of their rope!

Have you seen the seat sleds that just strap on to a kid's bottom? They might like those.
