FINALLY...real snow!








We woke up Saturday morning to lots of SNOW.  The kids and us were super excited. We have been wanting to go sledding forever.  So we ate a quick breakfast and bundled up for some sledding. We knew we only had about an hour because the girls had basketball games.  We have 2 sleds. One is pretty good and one isn't so great.  We piled them on and ALL of them LOVED it.  Giselle decided early on that she didn't like sitting in the very front but was very happy to be in the middle.  After a few runs we ran into a coworker of Brett's. They had a bunch of sleds and let us use a few of there's.  Jacob LOVED the circle disc.  He loved going by himself and than running back up the hill to soar back down.  He would try to go as fast as he could because he didn't want to share it..sneaky little boy.   We got adventurous and tried a few tricks. Once again I am amazed at my kids. They were so brave and tried everything and loved everything.  It was such a fun morning and we were sad to have to leave.
Later that day after all the games Brett went out to snow blow our drive way and sidewalks. Jacob really wanted to help. So he went out all bundled up and shoveled with Daddy.  He did such a good job.  In fact Brett took him later that day to help a friend who was hurt and her husband was out of town. So Jacob and Brett went and shoveled her driveway and Brett said he was a huge help and did a great job.  Jacob is just an outdoors boy. He loves any reason to be outside.
