Back to the Sled Hill!

We took Owen back to the sledding hill we discovered at Christmas on Saturday to run some energy out of him. Easier said then done!!! But, we did have fun. It's pictures like this one that make me think I'm getting a little peek into what he'll look like at 16.... The glasses are mine, I meant to grab some goggles that mom and Will left for him, but got in a rush and spaced them. We were trying to keep the snow out of his eyes this time since that's what spoiled his trip on Christmas.
Check out the hill!!! This is the "bunny hill" side. The rest is a lot steeper and a lot higher!!! Too high for me for sure, this one scared me and Owen...
He went down on a sled once and then decided he preferred just to scoot down the hill on his butt.
They have an awesome playground at this park too that we stopped at on the way back to the truck. Dave couldn't drop Owen fast enough on this teeter-totter, Owen thought it was such a blast! Despite the fact that it was all of 9 degrees there, we had to drag Owen back to the truck after about 45 minutes.
Check out how read his cheeks were!!!
Hope you are all having a great week!!! I just got back from the doctor's office with Owen. He suspects that he has both an inner and outter ear infection in his left ear. So frustrating!!! I'm real close to agreeing to have Owen's tonsils out at this point. He's had the sniffles for about a week, nothing major and nothing all the other kids in his class don't have. But, because that tonsil is so big, it puts pressure on his ear canal, trapping the fluids, which is causing the ear infections. Anyway, point being, I'm hoping he has a better week this week on the antibiotics.
