Hangin out with the "other" Mitchell family

We try to go to Em's house at least once a week, and this week we went a bunch and ended up staying most of the weekend. Em and Ted are so generous and accomodating they didn't bat an eye when we asked to stay the night so we could stay and play games. Nate's brother Sam also just moved here from Washington so it has been fun playing with "uncle Sammy". Some of the fun things we did.

Sledding: we went to rock canyon park on Friday before Nate came down, but Uncle Ted got to meet us there for some fun sledding. Alot of the snow was melted, it was super icey at the bottom of the hill, and I forgot our sleds so we shared a lot, but it was nice to remember how much fun sledding is.
 Some of the group
 Sliding with Blainito
 Tough guy

 Cutey Chloe after a slide down the hill. At first she just wanted to slide on her bottom but soon decided it was fun to take turns sliding on sleds with each of her Aunts and Uncles and Mommy.
Sledding this time was so much fun, lots better than last year when Chloe and Blain stood there not wanting to sled and whining to go home. Avenlea slept in her carseat at the top of the hill the whole time. Maybe next year Avenlea you can join in the fun. I did one slide with both of them on the double sled. We didn't fall off and had a good ride.
