There wasn't a single mark on this snow before we arrived. It was fresh-from-the-sky fluff behind a schoolyard near Grandma DJ's house. Buby and I hopped on together and made the first run. I quick realized it was a no pain/no gain situation and threw my arms over Buby's face. {Alas, I understand the ski mask.}
Before I could yell up to warn My Sweets, he and Bleu were already zooming down. She didn't respond as well to snow in the face and opted to sit out the rest of the time. Grandma, Tom and I took turns hanging with her while the others raced Buby.
Though Bleu and I played in a sled at the bottom of big hills last year, this was her first taste of hardcore winter sports. {Well, aside from sledding in utero. I admit I felt spectac at the end of my pregnancy with her and joined the boys a few times, to the amazement/dismay of onlookers.}
Where we are it's been brutally cold, but we just haven't had the accumulation. I did drive by our town park on the way home from swim class last night, and they have made a mountain of snow. The tubing trails look fabulous. Maybe we can venture out this weekend.
