Of course, when it snows, we take advantage of the white stuff and head over to the local school's sledding hill.
The best thing about the boys' ages is that we can all sled together. Last year, an adult had to trail Nolan to help him up the hill, and to make sure he didn't spin out of control when he was going down the hill. This year, he's big enough to handle his own sled and the walk back up the hill.

I have decided, however, that some activities should be left to the kids. I tried out Matt's new snow scooter on the hill, and had a sore hip for an entire week after falling!
I think I am too old for this...
I think I broke my hip!
Sadly, the day after this gorgeous, sunny sledding day, the rain returned. Followed by snow, then rain, then ice pellets. We haven't seen the sun in about two weeks, and there isn't any snow on the ground to brighten things up. I'm grateful for the clear roads, but the gray landscape could definitely use some brightening!
