This morning we got about 1-2 inches of snow. Didn't feel like taking the car out on the roads to take Alyssa to school (since it's less than 1/2 a mile) so decided to take the kids on the sled. (I still haven't gotten them boots so didn't think I should make them walk!) With Alyssa weighing 43lbs and John 41 - it was quite a workout going uphill both ways! :) The walk home was much easier with just John. Then John "helped" me get the driveway shoveled....by pushing the snow around and yelling at me not to wreck his sand castle on the driveway. He was so happy to get inside to have some hot cocoa - I mean warm cocoa. The kids don't like things hot so I have to add ice cubes and/or cold milk to get the temperature just right.
