Fun in the Snow
The weather here has been a bit abnormal for the last week or so and that abnormality continued today as it started snowing in the morning and by the end of the day we had about 4 inches of snow. School was canceled today for Emma so she spent part of the day at Patty’s (friend of ours that runs a daycare next to Emma’s school). I quit work a little early today and after we got Katie home from work, I went over and got Emma. After coming home for a bit, I took Emma over to the school where we spent a couple hours sledding down the big hills on the playground. We had an absolute blast. A few of Emma’s friends were there as well.
Earlier in the day the kids had made a jump at the bottom of the hill and because I haven’t quite come to terms with my age, I decided to try it out. I got a good running start, picked up speed down the hill, and went flying off the jump. The time in the air was really fun. The landing: not so much. Needless to say my back and other major parts of my body are in recovery.
Anyway, it was a really fun day today and I think tomorrow will probably be a repeat because the snow doesn’t appear to be going anywhere and I think they have already canceled school.
