While many a man, woman, and child spent their day inside a classroom/work office longingly gazing at the great outdoors, my kids and I hit the slopes--well, the hill at the park with snow sled in tow and hot cocoa in thermoses. We had a blast! Austin and Nyah practiced going down in many different styles, most impressively standing up like a snowboarder, which is what they've recently decided they want to be when they grow-up. Olivia didn't want to stop "sliding" and even Jolie got into the action a little unintentionally. Warning: Baby car seats are slippery on packed snow and ice. Having moved to St. George when I was 10 I'd forgotten how much fun snow can be, all the cold and such, but I had a great time and had to keep insisting I would ride with Olivia so I could have a turn too.
Only bad news: Forgot my camera, so no pictures except on cell phone, and I should have run errands before getting big wet spot on rear end. Maybe I should add snow pants to Christmas list.
I challenge everyone, everywhere to take a snow day and have a fabulous time!!
