If you're a regular to this blog you'll know that we are big lovers of outdoor play, but that being British we have to put up with A LOT of rain! So as it's got colder and wetter we've had to try a bit harder to get outside, but once out there I think we've possibly had more fun than in the warm summer days!
This weekend we went sledding in the garden, only minus the snow! This is how it started out, Hubby pulling the boys round the garden in our sledge....
Then somehow our outdoor play table got turned into a ramp....
... which provided opportunities to learn how to fly...
... then the ramp got a bit steeper (oh and the other red pole is Bud's light sabre made from other bits of table legs!).
Champ got in on the action...
... the ramps seemed to multiply as the trampoline seemed to get involved!
..... providing even greater opportunities for flying!
We had awesome fun! I even had a go and have the bruises to prove it! Plus if it provides happy, crazy faces like this!
I hope you've enjoyed our snow free sledding! If you liked this why not check out our Facebook page and Pinterest boards.
My husband and I are laughing with tears streaming down our faces. Awesome! And I'm afraid it's giving him ideas...
