one reason snow is useful (& fun)...

The girls loved their first sledding experience.  The only complaint I heard was trying to climb up the hill time and time again.  Sailor's shoes had no traction whatsoever which lead to a little bit of whining, so the above picture is Seryn desperately reaching to help her.  It was cute to watch!

From previous experiences, I've learned it's hard to escape a sledding trip without injury........of course, that injury would come from the pregnant mommy!  My first time down that tiny little rabbit hill my weight unexpectedly shifted and I ate the snow cold....literally ate it.....just my mouth & chin bashed against the cold ground.  I felt pretty cool walking away with a bleeding, scraped up chin.  ;)  Oi!

Oh yeah, you read that right, I'm PREGNANT! :)
