What these poor Oklahoma kids get excited about is amazing. We are officially iced in as we received quite a bit of freezing rain yesterday, sleet last night, and some sleet and snow mix today. Alli and Cole got up this morning and were so excited because the ground was white. They instantly started to get boots, coats, hats and gloves on to "go play in the snow." Oh, if they only lived where real snow fell! After walking out the front door, they quickly realized that this was a little different from the snow they have seen at Grandma and Grandpa's in Kansas, but they went on trying to make snow angels (the sleet still falling from the sky pelted them in the face),
snowballs (fell apart in their gloves as they tried to scoop it up), and sledding. That's right sledding.
And you know what they found out, ice sledding is quite fun and faster than snow sledding. I took them up by our neighborhood pool where there is somewhat of a hill and they made quite a few trips up and down. Our daughter is more of a dare devil than we could have ever imagined! They had a great time today with friend and neighbor Maddie.
