not quite spring

last weekend spring, this weekend snow storm. now that february is over (yea!) we are itching for some spring weather. but what a fantastic snow we had this weekend. the most since we moved here. i have to admit, during the winter i'm more of a stay-inside-and-watch-the weather-through-the-window gal. bundled up with a book or staying warm cooking all day long. but, i do want to make an effort to 'get out there' with our little ones and have them *touch* all the seasons. luckily andy rallies us to get out. so, we bundled up the kids yesterday and trekked over to our friend's street for some sledding. we don't own a sled (shame on us), and andy thought our recycle bin would work pretty well. uh, clever. i guess. but he found a large box instead .... zaiah was his partner. kai had his first ever sled run too, and slid into a big pile of snow: face first. so that was pretty much it for sledding for him.... maybe next year (or three)?! this morning he looked out the window and said "i don't really like snow anymore." sigh.

(i would post pictures, but blogspot is having some technical difficulty. story is not so interesting w/out snow photos i bet... i'll post some later.)
