So Christmas Eve Day we decided to go sledding. There wasn't very much snow but it still worked. It was warm(as warm as it gets) and there wasn't very many people. Basically it was perfect. The kids were having so much fun. Chandler kept saying, "Mom, that was fun!" every time he went down. Deegan was even daring and went down on his tummy all by himself!
And then it suddenly turned to a bloody mess when some kid who wasn't watching or didn't yell to warn us, came flying down the hill and hit Deegan head on right in the face! He was screaming and his mouth was gushing blood. He was covered in blood and my coat was pretty bad too. Sorry that was graphic but it was so scary. So we grabbed all our stuff and I grabbed Deegan and ran for the truck. We got home and I cleaned him up. Total damage: a big cut on the inside of his cheek, a fat lip, a scratch across the outside of his check with swelling, redness and a little bruise, and probably a headache. The poor little guy is such a trooper. It didn't stop him from eating a nice Christmas Eve Diner, cookies, and candy. So my kids will always be taught the safety of sledding each time they go. Please teach yours too!

Wow!!!Glad the little trooper is ok. Sledding is one of our favorite winter time activites...We broke all of our sleds last year pulling them in the desert behind the 4-wheelers. We'll have to get new ones and meet up...
