TRIP TO WISCONSIN

Hudson and Chloe at Grandpa Mike's backyard. Aunt Michelle has graciously offered to pull the children around on a toboggan. Which reminds me of a story. One winter...a long, long time ago...my father, Grandpa Mike, decided it would be cool if his daughters had a toboggan to slide down the steep hill in his backyard. I remember the three of us getting all bundled up and then heading outside. We all got on the toboggan and slid down the hill. My father, from the slide line decided that we weren't going fast enough and decided to run the water hose to ice the trail. By the time this all finished we were cold and went inside. My father was a little dissappointed that we had thrown in the towel and decided to take the toboggan for a test drive. We watched from inside the picture window. My father, all bundled up, pulled his hat down tight and slid back and forth, then down the hill. This scene was one from like a Chevy Chase movie. Super fast, my father goes down the first hill, accross the yard...doesn't stop where he is suppose to, and continue over the steep back onto the ice covered lake...HE WAS AIRBORNE and all we could do was laugh, then run out to see if he was ok...I believe he responded with "Girls, I don't think you should try that.
