We had a beautiful snow storm today! I love it when it snows and snows. Only if I don’t have to go anywhere. Hope everyone was safe out there. Aren’t these huge snowflakes awesome?!We forgot to have the kids bring the toys in under the breezeway. They don’t look like they mind the snow. What a beautiful sight.

That reminds me of the time I was sledding with my friend Ronda. I was about six years old. We found a great hill in the back of her house. Actually it was a pasture that from time to time had animals in it. It must have been my first run, because I only remember going down once. It was a great run. I ran behind the sled for a second and hopped on it. As I was gaining speed, I notice that down the hill a little bit, was a barbed wire fence running across where I was headed. I don’t know for sure why I was thinking this, but I thought (in my little six year old brain) if I lay as flat as I can I’ll go right under the bottom wire. Well, I did go right under the bottom wire, but I came out the other side with a nice scratch all the way up my forehead. I look back and think, why didn’t I just roll off the sled? It could have been so much worse. But I did learn a good lesson that day? Don’t sled in a pasture with barbed wire around it, and just cause your going fast down a hill on a sled, does not mean you have to keep going fast down a hill. Good times!

I love snow!
