Fun in God's Handiwork


I heard that 65% of America is covered in snow right now and more is on the way.   Growing up in Utah, I LOVE the snow!  Not everyone shares my tastes I know (and we aren't buried under 3 + feet of snow right now either).   We just couldn't resist taking a recent afternoon to travel to Grandma & Grandpa's farm for some "sledding with speed".


We filled the mini-van to the brim by including our dear friend Hope and even our dog Frisbee, who loves to run herself to exhaustion.   It was a fun-filled afternoon freezing our noses off.  The kids had a blast and were challenged to see who could stay on the sled the longest. 


Initially the boys were intentionally flinging themselves off the sled but when determined, Spiderman won the contest by far.  Boo had the princess seat for most of the afternoon but she did give it a try with dear ol' Mom.   What a beautiful day!

For some reason I just teared up a bit seeing your two boys in the sled with pure joy on their faces!! I am just sooo excited to have another boy in the family.... and a brother for Jacob!!! (not saying that he and Grace don't adore eachother.... you know what I mean!!!!)

Looks like fun! We're in the other 35% that isn't buried in the snow!! :(
