Sledding at City Lake

Sunday, Feb. 14, the snow fell and it fell good! Monday was President's Day and the kids were suppose to use that day for a snow makeup day from the last snowfall. That didn't happen, school was canceled and it was canceled for 2 days and on Wed. the kids were on a two hour delay. Instead of sitting inside, we decided to get a group of friends together and meet at an area park called City Lake and go sledding. The Wongler's, The Beard's, The Brown's, The Alexander's and us went sledding and boy did we have fun! Not only did the kids sled but the adults did too and I think we might of had more fun than the kids! We are finally on somewhat of a normal schedule now but it is Friday and time for the weekend! It will be hard next week to get back into the swing of things but it was nice to have a little break!

Snow = Snow Day = Fun in the Snow!!

Today was the kid's first snow day of the school year and the new year! I really doubted that we would get any snow, let alone have a snow day. I was surprised when Brad woke me up at 6:00 and said school was cancelled. Jacob doesn't go to school on Tues. and Thurs. but Jordan was super excited to stay home. From the time I woke up until I took the kids out, they begged to go play in the snow! I took them out and after 45 mins., I had to make them come inside. I was freezing and the wind was picking up. They enjoyed getting some fresh air and running some energy off playing football and baseball. They tried sledding with a trash can lid but it didn't work well! Jordan's hoping for more snow so he can miss school tomorrow too but I doubt that will happen!
