Last night and today it snowed a little. Maybe an inch or so? I know that is not much (especially considering our snow last year) but it was just barely enough snow for some fun.
Funny story:
After church and brunch, we got home and I unpacked inside while Corey and Kya played outside. Corey thought it would be great fun for Kya to sled down the little hill behind the garage (shown above). He put her on the sled and sent her off. Within a millisecond, he realized that the light layer of sleet and snow was super slick and Kya was in for the ride of her life. He said it was like the scene from National Lampoon Christmas Vacation. So, the worried father sprinted after the sled and dove after it as it was sailing down toward the steep bank (drop off) to the tall grass below. He caught her just in time and I am happy to report that she is still in one piece with all limbs attached. Thank goodness.
Kya got a few more sled rides but this time we made sure mom was at the top of the hill and dad was at the bottom to play goalie and catch her. She giggled the whole way and we heard many "mo mo" "peas peas" "go go" [more please go].

a favor, if I may
UPDATE: Thank you so much for the votes. Our cute little Kya did not win, but we sure had fun playing. Thanks again!
. . .
I have SO SO SO much to blog about. We've been having oodles of fun around here. Did you toddlers are a laugh-a-minute and more?
But before I get to that I must beg for a favor:
Please vote for Kya.
A Bismarck photographer helped me with a Bison Booties photo shoot last year and she is having a contest on her blog. The baby/child with the most votes gets free photo loot. Since she took Kya's photo as part of the Bison Booties event, she is including Kya in the contest.
