We got about 5 inches of snow last night and then some sleet today. We had picked up a sled earlier this week because all of the meterologists were saying we were going to have significant accumulation, so we were all excited about trying out the new sled! We bundled the kids up and headed to the school across the street from our apartment complex and just started sledding on the first hill we came to. It came down into the street, but obviously there were not that many people out, so we were safe. Here are some pictures from our fun in the snow. Davis did much better this year than last year.
This is on the way to go sledding. Yes, Kallie is on the back, but Matt is just pulling them through our apartment complex parking lot.
Kallie all bundled up (tights, long sleeve t-shirt, another long sleeve shirt, pants, socks, and her "bear" one piece winter cover-up) and under her warm blanket car seat cover. She slept through the whole thing! She fell asleep before we left the apartment and she did not wake up until we got inside and were taking off our wet clothes!
Maddie and Davis going down the hill first. Matt got them started and I was at the bottom taking pictures.
Here they come! Probably should have caught them, but I was too busy taking pictures. They actually jumped the curb, and fell off. They both cried, but there was no blood and they were really okay. Just a little scared. Maybe one of us should have gone down with them first?!?
Matt got Maddie and Davis to go down with him again. I didn't have the camera when Davis came down again. Davis liked it. Maddie.....
not so much! She had more fun trying to throw snowballs at Davis and Mommy and making ....
snow angels. We tried to throw snowballs, but the snow would just fall apart - perfect for sledding, but not for making snowballs or a snowman.
One of our neighbors and his daughter were out tubing, so we asked him to take our picture before they went back in. Kallie is behind us in her carrier. It is kind of far away, but you get the idea :)
Maddie warming up with hot chocolate in her Caribou "mug" after we came in. They are napping now, but we are planning on making snow cream when they wake up. I guess we'll have dessert before dinner tonight! I'll post some videos of Matt and I sledding a little later.
