We woke up to a beautiful, snowy day. The girls played outside while Poppy worked with his "new to us" snowblower. After clearing the sidewalks, we headed over to the sledding hill. Poppy went down with Carys first after some hesitation on her part. She was scared of the ride and was a bit upset after getting to the bottom. She did not want to get hurt. Helen was ready to ride and really enjoyed her first run with Poppy. She was ready to go again until she saw the playground. After a quick stop at the slides, and a glove malfunction, Helen was ready to ride again. I'm told she did not enjoy the second ride so much. I think she may have gotten snow in her face.
We had hot chocolate and Christmas cookies when we got home. Poppy is not feeling well today, it's a shame because he worked so hard during this last week. At least he was able to enjoy the New Year snow with the girls a bit.
Carys's English teacher told me her favorite thing is making snow angels. She's really good at it.
