Monica + Dave: YitL Session 4

December 27th, 2009
 

For Monica and Dave’s fourth Year in the Life session, they and the rest of their extended family went to Stanley’s Maple Lane Farm for an old fash­ioned horse-drawn sleigh ride. The weather was perfect: sunny, and right after the freezing rain, so all the bare trees were lit up with a coat of ice.

We hung around in the barn for a bit, and then we were off on the sleigh ride!

About halfway through the ride, all the kids were let off to romp around in the snow:

The freezing rain had created a layer of ice over the snow, and the big thing was to smash it over your head.

A great time was had by all.
