Tubing at Pine Valley!!

We have lived in this area for over 15 years and this is the FIRST time we have ever gone to Pine Valley to go tubing!  It was fun!  The sun was out and it was gorgeous.  With that said I have to admit that sledding scares me to death.  I grew up in Salt Lake and we would go at least once a year.  I remember many youth activities that included tubing down the giant hill at Mountain Dell.  I have many memories of getting very hurt at such activities and so I think I am scarred for life for participating in the event myself.

My biggest fear today as I watched sleds zipping down the hill with no control was that kids would get run over -- or run over someone else.  There were plenty of close calls!  Today we went to what appeared to be the main tubing hill but if we go again I want to find a hill that is less crowded -- and maybe a little smaller for the Josh and Jenna.  Jenna only went one time with Rick -- and that was enough for her.  She hated it!  She liked playing in the snow though.

Janika invited all of the carolers to come too.  Tommy's dad drove the teenagers and after sledding we all went to his family's cabin for gourmet hot chocolate!
