Sledding!

 

Between Monday and Tuesday of this past week, it snowed 13.5 inches!  A big chunk of that came overnight Monday, so school ended up being cancelled for the boys.  I can't believe that Fort Collins hasn't had a snow day in years, and we move here and they have 2!  Haha!

I can't begin to tell y'all how much snow 13.5 inches is; it was so high and so powdery that it was so hard to walk in.  But, we decided to make the most of the day and met several of the coaches' wives for some sledding at a nearby park.  (I've definitely overcome my fear of driving in the snow and ice since living here; thank goodness for 4 wheel drive and some crash courses in snow/mountain driving!)

Anyways, we had a great time sledding!  Like I said, the snow was very difficult to walk in, and Walker and Anderson couldn't even move at some points.  Haha!  It was definitely a workout, but oh so much fun once we made some trails.

Anderson didn't last very long out there- he couldn't walk so he kept having to being pulled on the sled (see above with Walker trying to pull him).  Well, he was a slippery little booger and kept falling off.  And then, I took him and Walker down on the sled (see the first video above), and Anderson got snow thrown in his face.  He ended up face planting as he got off the sled; it was over after that.  Haha!  I took him back to the car to thaw out while the boys stayed and played with their friends.  So much fun!  So much snow!!
