Yeah, I guess I should have posted sooner or something. Whatever. Anyway, I have lots more snowy pictures. <3

I guess I'll start out with Christmas since it was chronologically first. I did actually take down my LEGO Christmas display last year, so this is it set back up again. I used an actual Christmas tree instead of seaweed, but the paperclip decorations are the same ones.

My mom told us to go easy on Christmas presents this year, and not to ask for anything too expensive. Then she bought us this many presents.

She is psychotic, but this was actually intentional.

I actually took pictures of almost every present that everybody else opened (not mine, though, since I was holding the camera), but I won't bore you with them. Suffice to say I pretty much got everything I asked for, except for snow on Christmas. But as you can see, we got plenty on other days.

We went to that same spot to go sledding again. Twice, actually. The first time, on my last trip down the hill, I had the most epic wipeout ever. I was literally leaving claw marks in the snow behind me, but it wasn't slowing me down.

Unfortunately, it's difficult to get good pictures of such things. This ride was a little smoother.

My dad went too. He's fifty-something, but of course he was actually in shape at my age.

They added new bathrooms. Which isn't terribly interesting, but it's cool to see that much snow on top of there. And none of it's yellow.

Here's a snowman . . .

. . . and this is the second time we went, and the green cooler thing is sitting on what's left of the same snowman. Well, we call it a cooler, but we were keeping hot cider in it. It retains heat surprisingly well.

There were several of these fire pits the second time. I'm not sure how much the fire melted the snow versus how much they had to actually dig, but we spent a good fifteen minutes trying to fill in a hole on the sliding hill that wasn't there last time. Bumps much smaller than this pit have . . . severe consequences.

There's my dad again. We also had a polar bear sled that went a lot faster than the tubes. At one point we tied a tube on top of it, which worked fairly well.

This I just thought was kind of cool for some reason . . .

This was a little rear path to the top of the hill. I don't really think it's any less winding to go this way, but it looked like it would make a nice picture.

Close-up. The second time we went, the snow still looked just as fluffy as the first time, but it was actually icier, and some of it was falling off the trees.

That's it for now. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, other holidays, and . . . may the snow be with you.
