First Time Sledding

My dear friend Amy called this morning and invited us to go sledding with them. THANK GOD. We love these friends. I met Amy when our firstborn little baby girls were in music class together at Covenant. Then we ran into each other at tumbling at the Y, then we had several classes together. We were pregnant with our 2nd babies at the same time. Both of our husbands were getting MDIVs (Masters of Divinity), and we both were getting masters degrees in counseling (before God changed my plans). In short, we have a lot to talk about.

I thought perhaps I was going to go crazy this week. Between Hubby being sick, Beth breaking her elbow (sorry, Beth!!!), and the snow; everything we were supposed to do this week was cancelled. I love last-minute plans. Little Buddy stayed home with Daddy and took a nap while we went and had a great day of sledding, crafts, and lunch with Amy and her girls.

Who needs a sled, anyway?

Me and Little Sissy. Don't make fun of my hat. Someone gave it to me in seminary, and I still wear it when I want to be warm.

I like the hat!

Isn't it nice to have friends who you can drop everything for and who you just love being with? I do!But I could always use one more:)

We have ice, but no sledding. I won't show my kids these pictures b/c they'd be so jealous!

You're such a good mama! Looks like a fun-filled day.

Ahh, so fun! I wish I had had someone to sled with on my 3 (yes, three!) snow days! My boys next door are all sick.

I like the hat, too! You should see mine! :) I think Big Sissy's coat is identical to Sis's (or at least REALLY similar!).
