The Sledding Adventure

I absolutely get a kick out of sledding with my friends! Our youth group went sledding out at my friend, Arielle's farm. (Or out behind in the steep hills is more like it!) Anyhow, they had tubes there! Those are the best sled you can ever ask for! I don't care what people say about tobaggans and crazy carpets and saucers, tubes are the best.
Basically, everyone attempted to pile onto one tube. It did work! Barely. Then there was the pyramid.....well let's just say that didn't work as well. Keanna was on the top and I swear when we hit and a bump and she flew over us and on the ground, she was moving in slow motion. We went right over her! Thankfully, she was okay. It was still kinda funny though....
At one point, Shannon, Arielle and I decided to go on the tube together. There was this metal thing at the bottom of the hill that everyone tried to avoid. So we started going down the hill and of course, we started sliding over to the metal thing. I yelled "Abort!" and we all abandoned ship. It was pretty epic actually. This happened again except I was in the middle and couldn't 'abort' without the other two aborting first and they wouldn't. So I pressed my back into the snow in the middle of the tube and dragged us to a stop. Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures. :)
It was so fun though. Good times.
