Playing in the snow - November 26, 2011

It is a Simpson tradition to go play in the snow and choose a Christmas Tree on Saturday after Thanksgiving.  We found a great hill for sledding... (pictures in random order)

Video of Lincoln's first sled ride (with Jessi on saucer) (:34 sec)

James, Zoe, Rachel, Lincoln, Christy and Bree.  This was the most crowded ride!

The boy cousins: Tyler, Tucker, Lincoln, Jake and Carter.

Showing their muscles!

Lincoln and Zoe - riding in the tube on the way up the hill.  Pulling kids UP the hill is a really good cardio workout!

Video of Zoe, Jessi and Lincoln in the tube on the way down.  He was hungry, so he wasn't very happy on this ride down. Otherwise, he didn't complain about being outside in the cold. (:17 sec)

Bree, James, Christy and Zoe - this is the crowd that James hauled UP the hill in the tube and then took for a ride back down.

Solo on the orange sled - ZERO steering on this sled, I ended up in a ditch.

Solo on one of the foam sleds - these were the favorite sleds!

Hiking up the hill - Hannah, Lincoln and James, Jessi

Family tube ride!

Playing in the warm swimming pools. Lincoln enjoys the warm water.  He didn't cry when he got splashed in the face and loved to kick and wiggle.  But when he was done, he cried pretty hard until warm and dry.

Lincoln and his daddy

Just James!

Happy Thanksgiving from the Jessi James Gang!
