The Bobsled Run, Part 2
I took so many pictures of the kids sledding on the bobsled run that Paul built in our front yard in the February snowstorm, that I decided to put them in collages.
This is from the first day, before it got so incredibly fast we started making the boys wear helmets.
Even on the first day, there were some interesting crashes. Paul and I crashed a few times too. Luckily, the snow was quite soft.
The picture at the bottom corner shows the run before Paul built up the sides really high. In the next collage, you can see the banked sides later on.
It sure made for some great free fun. I don't remember ever enjoying the snow quite so much!

That looks like a wonderful time for the whole family. Maybe you have to have kids to enjoy getting out in the snow.
It looks like a blast Lisa; I guarantee the boys (and you two) will remember it forever!
Great job making this winter memorable for them. This winter wasn't all bad. Kids all over got a break from school and had some fun. But I wonder if winter is really over?....
Wow if you guys lived near town there would have been a hundred kids there! He really did a good job on it. We could have a good mud slide this morning.
Spring is here and some guy bought tomato plants at work on Wednesday but I just got cabbage.
They would have loved t here, although our hills are nothing compared to yours!!!!...:)JP
Nothing like a fun winter sport vacation in your own yard!! Looks like a great time for all. Linda@Wetcreek Blog
If you live in it one must play in it. I love to sled and ice skate. I just took the sled out of my van.
Wow! That must've been fun! I wish I had something like that here.
This seems so much fun!!!!
so darn cute and so much fun right at your own home. :)
This looks like so much fun! I love flying over the snow, feeling free and laughing. These are great pictures--you should frame the collages.
Looks like SO much fun.. And I'll bet your hubby enjoyed it as much as your sons.

Gee whiz, I know this is so much fun, and you all are feeling the snowfun, but I'm so happy it's gone from around here! WooHoo bring on spring!
fun photos!!! your house is so pretty with all that snow. :)
Oh my goodness, those kids are just too cute!!! I am jealous of all that snow.. it NEVER snows here!! <3 - www.domesticgeekgirl.com
These pictures are awesome!!! You should really frame them and set them out in the winter. Your house is so wonderful, are you still going to sell it? It is just perfect to raise boys in. My favorite picture is in the first collage, bottom right. I love it!
That does look like fun! I want to play in the snow now. Oh, but we don't have any.
I just love seeing those smiling faces, and can imagine next year you'll have 3 little boys asking for that fun again. :)

I miss sledding! Fabulous Daddy! Glad everybody had a great time! Great memories!!!
Boys are enjoying the day!! Wonderful pictures which will make them remember in future!!
This is, yet again, something the boys will remember and laugh about for many years to come--how cool their parents were to build this bobsled run! :)
You got some awesome pictures. That is a great way to enjoy the snow. :)
Love all the photos. Looks like they had a great time. I think I would enjoy giving it a try!
Good thing Paul built those sides up. Looks like quite a fall if he didn't.
That is SOOOO COOL! Wish I lived nearby to come over. :)
