Slediquette~ Our morning started with some surprise snow. What we had yesterday actually had melted away and pretty much dried up. I was hopeful that I could return to work today. lol... Matt woke me up at some point in the night to tell me it was snowing again. I really couldn't believe it, as the weather heads said we would be done with snow by 8:00 pm last night. I really know better than to believe everything they say, really I do. So I hustled out to get some photos in my jammies big coat and boots ( a lovely sight for the neighbors I am sure :) Then we had a hearty breakfast. After that we all bundled up for a walk and some sledding. The sled hill is about a 70 degree rock strewn hill a block long. Steep and scary. I secretly think of it as Deathwish Hill. The bottom of the hill ends where the road cuts across it. We started our walk over and were joined by about 7-10 kids as we walked along. A man coming back with his two children met us on the way over. He said "Great sledding over there, nice paths, they fly right out in the road though, thats quite a crowd you got there." as he walked by. Thats a pretty big blurt for a stranger~ I'd say he had his morning coffee :) We continued over to the hill. There were about three different paths you could sled on so we sent Sammy up the one with the fewest kids. She came flying down. First words out of her mouth were "Daddy its your turn" Of course Matt (we had to pretty much drag him along) Didn't want a turn. What no turn? So she went a couple more times then I went couple times too. We headed back to the house with Matt pulling Sam in her sled.
We got home and Sammy and I had a little snowball fight then Matt wanted to get in on that so we all had a snowball fight she was helping him (no fair :) All in all it has been a nice morning for the three of us. I am glad we were able to make the best of the unexpected day off.
