The kids weren't going to school today anyway because it's Presidents Day, but we were all still super excited to wake up to a bit of snow and ice! It was enough to delay James going into work until late morning, so we made the most of it by getting out and sledding for the first time ever! I knew when we bought our house that this hill would be ideal for sledding…we've just had a long wait to give it a try! It was great fun!
Emery went down several times with me and made it just fine. Then she went with her dad and brother and it completely traumatized her for some reason, as you can see (and hear)! She's not much of a dare devil!
James got home earlier that usual, so we decided to head back out for round two! Emery decided she would try it again, but only with her Momma! The sledding just before dark was even better than this morning because the slush on the road had re-frozen and was basically a solid sheet of ice. We all sledded as long as we could stand it…well after dark and until we were starving and our faces felt like they were going to fall off! Then we came inside to enjoy a big pot of homemade chili! It was a great snow day!
