Yesterday it was freezing! We had a negative wind chill and it was our first snow day...so the kids begged me to go outside for along time...and I finally gave in. I said they could shovel the driveway and walkway first to see just how cold it was before they built a snowman or went sledding. Why not use this begging for good use right? So off they went...
They did an awesome job, while Jonathan watched from inside...I went out a little later and finished up the shoveling job...
For all their hard work, they decided to sled a little on the hill in our front yard...they shot out across the street! It was a lot of fun I think and the whole street joined in (on our side at least where there are hills)...
Here was the end result - a pretty clear walkway and really rosy cheeks (except Ashlyn who says she was sweating - maybe she did the most work)...
When John got home at 3:30, he took them to the Coves sledding hill by the lake. Of course it was so busy all day that there wasn't much snow left on the huge hill. But the kids said they still flew all the way down...
