Snow Day

We finally got enough snow to sled. It has been quite a long time since we have had enough to really enjoy. The anticipation of waiting on it to get here was tough. The news stations had talked it up for days. Of course everyone went out and bought out the grocery stores, thinking they would be snowed in for weeks. :) We had quite a crowd on the hill by mid morning. Papaw was going to go get Craig's boys but Trevor was sick and Nolen can't get out in the cold so they didn't get to enjoy the fun. Jamie did bring some snow in for them to play with at their house. Check out her blog. Mitchell really liked it. I went down a few times. It is quite a workout to get back up that hill walking in the snow. Our neighbors all came over and Mike (John's Dad) brought Karla & Maddie. Clay & Michael came, plus a couple from our church brought their kids over. It was a fun day. Lunch was potato cheese soup, hot wings, & chocolate chip cookies.

The Carey Family We had quite a few sledders.

Mitchell & Maddie attempting to make snow angels. Clay & Michael Karla & Maddie John going down the driveway. He was going too fast and was dragging his hand to slow him down. Going down on his own. Mitchell got to going a little too fast and Papaw had to make a diving catch for him before he topped the hill. The walk back up the hill is quite a workout. This is how Mitchell gets back up the hill.
Me & Mitchell racing John. We won!!! Bailey loved running in the snow. This is her coming up the hill. Mitchell getting another ride up the hill, Papaws sack of potatoes Kristin & Papaw racing
