Yesterday, my dad took my sisters and I sledding. I think it was the most fun I've had this winter. We went to a park near where we live; where there are a few gigantic hills. From the top, the trees looked as if the had been put in a shrinking machine.
Our sleds, with us on them, flew down the hill, spinning round and round like tops. It was as if we were on a roller coaster! Only more exciting, because there were no safety bars. It gave me the butterflies! Then comes the long climb back up the hill, after being dumped unceremoniously into the snow. We are so anxious to get back to the top, the climb seem to take forever, like trudging up a million stairs. My legs felt like cooked noodles. The place was crowded with other families, looking for a day of fun. I was a big klutz in my snowsuit, and half of the time, I ended up flipping upside-down into the snow! My sisters wiped out a few times too. One of the hills had the most horrible speed bumps! I went down, and didn't see the bumps, and when I hit the ground, I'm sure I heard a crack. (Hope it wasn't me) My bottom hurt so bad!
The time seemed to fly by, and before we knew it, my dad was calling us back to the car. Our bottoms hurt, and our legs were as wobbly as noodles, but we had a fantastic time! After that, my Uncle Pete came over to our house, and we had KFC for dinner. What a treat!
What do you like to do during the cold winter? When it's cold, there is only one other thing that I like to do more than going sledding. Guess what it is. Do you give up? It's going to the library! The library has to be one of my favorite places to go.
