Hi Ho the Dairy-O, a Sledding we will go!

My text is lining up all crazy AGAIN!  Got to figure something out.  Anyway, Friday we woke up to everything covered in snow and the snow coming down.  School was out and as soon as the snow stopped falling we headed for the hill across the bridge from the lake (b/c it's much bigger than the one on the side of our house) and sledded our little hearts out.  We didn't even bother making a snowman this time, partly b/c the high was barely in the 20s and that's just a little too cold for mama to be out rolling snowballs for a snowman that will melt the next day b/c the forecast called for highs in the 50s on Saturday......gotta love Texas weather.  Anyway, here are a few pics from our snow day. 

Here's MC....looks like she's giving me a thumbs up, ha!
 MA ready to hit the hill:
 Charlie needs to readjust his hat for optimal visibility:
 William sledding:
 Our friends the Seibs brought one of their tubey things (but it's not a tube) that they use on the lake and it was a BIG hit.  Here's William and the girls:
 Here we go!!!!!
 WEEEEEE!
 Daddy even got in on the action:
 those smiles....priceless!
 Henry wins the prize for most photogenic and cooperative on this particular day.....cutie pie!
 You can't have a snow day without tasting a little snow......just make sure it's not yellow snow, ha!
 Here's Charlie going full speed ahead:
 And the crash into the brush afterwards:
 Look at these cuties....Avery and Henry.  They're hugging above. (it wouldn't let me write above that pic)  They are two peas in a pod!
 Charlie and Blake heading down....
 Margaret Ann flying solo:
 Want a taste, Mom?
 My sweet William man:
The snow didn't hang around long.  It was all melted away by Saturday afternoon.  The kids sure were glad school was out on Friday and they had a blast sledding.  Two snow days in one year.....the kids better not get too used to it.  I don't think it snows very often around here, but we'll take it!  If only they wouldn't have to make up the day at school it would be perfect!  So long Good Friday we'll be in school I'm sure.....
