We finally got to try out the sleds that Papa Merritt got the kids way before Christmas! It was finally the perfection combination: not too cold, not dark outside, and the kids were not sick!! It took until January 16th for this to finally happen!! The kids fun with Doug. He pulled them up to the tree line in the open field behind our house and then sled down with them each individually. They picked up some good speed a few times, as you can tell by Doug & Samantha's faces in one of the pictures! Clair & I just hung out in the HUGE drift in our back yard. Samantha is standing on top of it in one picture. The drift is almost as tall as our wall in the backyard in some spots. We also have 3 ft and 4 ft little spiral trees with lights on them, which you can barely see because they are covered up with snow! We are the only ones with snow still in our back yard, and it may be there until May this year....hopefully it doesn't melt too quickly and then flood our basement!
