ENJOYING the SNOW

Reluctantly I gave in to Conor's request to go sledding on Monday. There wasn't much snow left. WE HAD AN ABSOLUTE BLAST. Actually, there was just enough snow & it was a bit icy so we went FAST. At the bottom of the hill, Megan said, "Again. 2, 4, 6. (referring to the number of times we should go again? And we did go until my bottom was FREEZING!) A plug for LLBean's sleds! Awesome. (They are fast for kids and adults and they are nice and light for carrying back up the hill.)

"Oh what fun it is to ride......"



Afterwards we walked over to the park near the bike path and Conor climbed a huge mound of snow (without me yelling, "Conor, come down now!")
Watching Megan walk in all her snow gear was so cute. She was struggling to walk through the crusty snow & it was hilarious.

We are getting more snow today!!! I want to go sledding, but don't feel like shoveling it, or taking the time to dress my kids for it. Layers of clothes, snowpants, warm socks, coats, mittens, hats..... It takes us an hour to get ready. Seriously.

I'm wanting to go sledding too, but am also ready for warmer days and few layers of clothes;) Oh, the winter laundry!
