This morning we woke up to a beautiful snow. Tim said that there was no way school was going to happen so he was turning off the alarm. Well, school happened. But, we took Claire 2 hours late, because you can't waste a good snow in Arkansas. It is a rare occasion, and you must take advantage of it while you can! The kids woke up and looked outside and were screaming and going nuts. We got everyone dressed (total chore!) and went out to play. It was such a fun morning. Brock has been dying to ride on the sled so today he got his chance. One benefit of living off the side of a cliff is that you have a great place to sled. The downside is that you have to learn the art of bailing off at just the right moment. Brock did great but Claire, not so much. Tim and I both about broke bones trying to stop her from sailing off the edge of the earth. It was still more fun that I have had in awhile. You can see from their faces how much they enjoyed it.

Hey Jill! Long time, no see. You're a better mother than I am. We have not been outside yet, though we may later. It rained all day yesterday, so it will be mushy.
Shannon posted a comment on my little blog, and that's how I found you.
Did you know we live in Pocahontas now? We moved in January, and are still trying to sell our house in Fordyce.

Glad everyone's kids but MINE had fun in the snow!!!
Oh, how fun! Derek had to work, so I couldn't take the kids out, but they had a ball watching it snow from the window!
Um, did someone just mention BAILING OUT? I can just imagine your little angels flying. Thanks for the mental picture and for bringing back some great memories too! My mom pointed me to your blog -- it's great to get a glimpse of life with your sweet family!
Big hugs to you,
