Snowmobile fun

We made an emergency trip up to northern Minnesota last week for Jason's grandpa's funeral. In between the hard parts, we made some time to enjoy the huge pile of snow they have already. Jason's dad has an old snowmobile so we thought we would help ourselves and take it for a spin. It was bitterly cold (2 degrees without the windchill factored in) so we had to keep going inside to warm up. The kids all loved riding with Jason, but Conrad and Jacob were the most jazzed. Jason got the sled out next. We couldn't convince Chloe that it would be fun so just the 3 boys went. Rylan was excited, but once they got going he was terrified. Apparently the lack of a windshield makes a huge difference in the amount of snow and bitter cold you get in your face! The big boys thought it was a sweet ride, and would have happily ridden all afternoon if we hadn't been so hungry for lunch.
