Sledding in December with no coat?!?!?

Grandad was too tired to go to White Sands with us today; but the rest of us trudged along.  We awoke to snow - a very small skiff - but we headed out anyway.  What a great time we had.  It wasn't that cold.  In fact it really wasn't cold.  BUT we had to put a coat (red) on him to find him.  He started out in light grey.  :(

Love, love LOVE this sand!

C'mon Dad keep up.

It sure is a loonnngg way to the end of this route.

OK take a picture quick - we need to get to the sledding part.

Whoa this machine hold up a balloon up in the air.

And here is what we really liked about the trip and why Ethan is in pajamas......

Hey! Yahoo!  I'm up here see?  Woohoo - look at me!!!
