So in February we went up to Oregon to see most of the Cowleys as Grandma and Grandpa Cowley returned from their mission. Lucky for us, the kids are pretty good in the car...
Once we were there, we had a planned a trip up to the snow with all the brothers and their families. Kevin and Megan were lucky enough to get to ride in the Fiesty Mama, Uncle Kevin couldn't resis the opportunity to watch a Harry Potter movie with Nate.
Sean and Amanda and their family met us up there and their timing was perfect, they pulled up just as we were all piling out of the car. Unlike our last sledding trip to Tahoe, this sledding spot was perfect, two great hills next to each other with big open spaces at the bottom with no trees to worry about hitting.
This hill was particularly steep. I think this is Nate on his first try going down it. It didn't take him long to discover that going down on his slick snow pants was just as fun as riding an inter tube. 
I sent Nate back up the hill to try again with his Dad. 
He took Dana and her BFF/cousin Bella on a sled ride:
Then he and Uncle Kevin decided to conquer the steep hill while riding the green tarp:
I don't know if they realized how fast the green tarp would go... 
Too bad I couldn't get my camera to focus so quickly... here's the aftermath:
I'm not sure where the green tarp ended up. Kimmy wanted to ride the sled like the big girls, so I took her for a little trip.
Then she got to hang out with Daddy for a bit.
With a little help from Jared, Jed and Kate were able to go down once on the big tube.
Dana is our little Daredevil, and right from the start wanted to go down all by herself on the tube, from the tippy top of the hill. 
Camden was pretty brave too.
Then he and Nate had lots of fun beating up any large chunks of snow the could find.
Even Uncle Kevin had a little bravery in him. 
Dana and Bella also went exploring and found a fun hole to jump and hide in.
