Tobogganing

So some of my pictures look a little extreme, maybe, but I was just having fun checking out all the editing tools. Anyways....a few weekends ago, we went tobogganing with some friends. The Cleveland Metroparks are amazing and offer tons of outdoor fun all year round. We decided that we want to have a good experience in the snow, so we all went tobogganing. It was soo much fun and we had just gotten quite a bit of snow, so it was BEAUTIFUL too! Here are just a few pictures from our day.

This is some of our friends at the end of the ride:
It's a lot steeper than I would have thought and you get a lot of speed coming down. The first time we went down I thought there was no way we were going to stop in time.

And just a few pics of us that one of our friends took:

We had a GREAT time! They even have a little "lodge" with a HUGE fireplace for you to come and warm up and get some extremely overpriced food! The only bad thing about going is that you have to carry your own toboggan up to the top...which still wasn't too bad for me cause I have Josh :)

  3. SO MUCH FUN! We have wanted to go there, but haven't yet because the kids were so little, and it was hard to find a sitter. Maybe we will be able to hit it up next year!?!?

    SUCH fun pictures...looks like a great way to take advantage of the cold! :)

  4. How much fun is that?! Yay for getting out and enjoying your surroundings. I'll admit, I've been a baby lately and keep hunkering down in my house.
