After dinner we did one of our family traditions. We went out to decorate a tree in the woods with goodies for the animals.\u00a0 \u00a0THe tradition came to us from a book we used to read the kids..\u00a0

diane I will go fetch the string from the tree in a couple of days so not to litter.. hope the animals like it !
it was fun doing this all together.. it’s something we did since the kids were little.. we talked about doing it with Sam.. and with our dogs.. Chai in particular would always try to eat the goodies.. it was nice to go beck in the past a little

We got home still bundled up. so Max, Gabe and I decided to go sledding on the fantastic sledding hill we have in the back yard. THe sledding hill comes form an unfortuante incident that happened back in the mid 1990s . a neighbors rbothers truck accidentally came about 2\/3 the way doen the hill. THe brake wasnt set.. but luckiny the truck was empty. We and the other neightbors have kept it clear and accessible for nearly 30 years.. the snow was FAST !!>. we took soem fun runs.\u00a0
