Yesterday we went away on one of our few spontaneous family outings together. Of course I say the word “spontaneous” loosely, for as anyone knows who’s gone to the snow there is a lot of gear and oh are we wearing enough layers? talk. But we were up at Lake Mountain a little before 9.30am, raring to toboggan!
Well, Riley wasn’t. No, he did not like his gloves and when he took them off discovered he did not like the cold and wet any better. So he sulked inside, until he had a little snack.
And look what a little blood sugar spike can do:
Yes, in the end he was the one who needed prising off the slopes while Keira skulked at my side asking, can we go home yet? In her defence, her socks were wet and it would’ve been uncomfortable.
Here are the obligatory action shots:
All in all an enjoyable – but thoroughly tiring – day.
