We have had a really mild winter with not much snow. On Kaleb's first Monday off track, I promised him if it snowed we would head over to the park and go sledding. It Did!! It was our third time to take advantage of our huge sledding hill that is located at the Western Springs Park that is right by our home. It is so nice to be within walking distance of it. The first time we went sledding this year, I just put the kids on our sled and towed them over to the park. It was kind of funny to just drag them behind me and the kids thought it was AWESOME!!
While we were there on our second visit for the season, we decided that we definitely needed another sled so both kids could sled at the same time. So this time last time around, we had two sleds and the kids had a blast. Both Kaleb and Karmindy are getting more brave all the time. The normally would sled down the smaller hills but towards the end the kids loved going down the large hill. It was fun to see them progress and get more comfortable and have fun! I truly enjoy getting out with my kids and enjoying the great outdoors. The only thing that would have made it better is if Mark/Dad could have joined us. He was at work.
I usually love the snow just until after Christmas and then I wish that it would just disappear for the rest of the year but I have figured out that living in Northern Utah for the past 3 years that you can get snow as late as May/June! Crazy Weather! One thing that I do love about the snow is not only playing in it but looking out our front windows and seeing the Snow blanket the Mountains. It is GORGEOUS!! It is a lot different than the red sand and dry desert landscape that I grew up seeing in Hurricane.
