my 28ish old sister

today really was the perfect day. clear blue skies and warmer temps. lindsey wanted to play outside for her birthday. i was so excited to go sledding because i hadn't been able to earlier and plus our snowfall in the valley has not been ideal for sledding in the streets. the drive up the canyon was beautiful. i had never been up to mutual dell before. we are now wanted to get our family reunion up there. so pretty. we got our snow gear on and off we went. memories of the day...
-abby's higher than high pitch scream
-lindsey's loud boisterous laugh
-me realizing i am a ninny but wanting to much to be brave with jumping in the air onto my sled onto the snow (sadly tried it once before)
-tyler's no fear of anything (unless you count the steep hill with the jump going off the fence)
-paul protecting his head even though he was no where near anything to hurt it. then he went limp and his body just went...funny)
-dad knowing his boundaries (smart)
-frigid water bottle
-mom of course taking pictures and laughing which i love to see
-trying so darn hard to blaze our own trail...exhausting.
i can't believe linds is 28ish. where did the time go? i really miss the days of barbies, making the coolest roads in our planters for our matchbox cars, filling the sandbox with water with our dinosaurs, playing store and restaurant, and just plain being goofy (which i think we still are). happy birthday linds...i love you!
