Winter Wonderland

We got about 2 inches of snow the other day (though the meteorologist predicted much more). This was plenty of snow for sledding. We have a few small hills (not even a real hill) in our front yard and up until yesterday, this was the closest the kids have gotten to real sledding. Yesterday (and today!!) I took them to a GIANT hill by our house. It is one of the best sledding hills I have ever seen. The great part is that there are different levels of steepness, so any age kid (within reason) can enjoy themselves. The boys loved it, except F who just hates being outside in the cold. It was so fun to sled with C because you could just feel the joy inside of him. He cackled, screamed and laughed his way down the hill each and every time. It was very cool. It sounds like the temperatures are supposed to rise this week, so we will most likely be loosing the snow soon. I am glad we had the weekend to get lots of good sledding in!!
