Wintertime in New England....

For those reading this family blog who do not reside in New England, we hope posted photos will provide a sense of the fun that can be had after the snow falls. It's not all snow plows and salted walkways out here--there's so much more to do! Case in point, Abby's first sled ride.

King Tony selected a beautiful red sled for Princess Abby and after getting bundled up to brave our most recent snowfall, the pair set out into our backyard. Needless to say, the experience started off a little 'bumpy' (see video below...hilarious), however in the end, everyone figured out how to pull and ride in sync and enjoyment was had for nearly 45 minutes. King Tony was extremely tired after pulling his little girl's sled, but will remember the day for the rest of his life. :) (as will Wendy who documented the events of the day and hasn't yet stopped laughing).

The video below shows the initial 'pull' of the sled--and what happens when you forget to first review proper sledding procedures....
