Saturday we got invited to sledding party at the last minute and decided to go. It was a perfect spot for sledding. A nice big hill without any dangerous obstacles at the bottom. Brody needed rescuing due to a major snowwash and actually got on a snowmobile with Kelly, a friend who was hosting the party. We couldn't believe he did it. The first words out of his mouth when we were leaving were, "I'm proud of myself." "Mom, will you still pay me $5 for riding?" I had offered him $5 a few weeks ago when we were trying to get him to take a ride at home. He will only ride with Kelly though...so still no rides at home.
Yesterday (Sunday) we enjoyed more outside time after the kids got back from Aunt Jessie and Uncle's house. Brody had set up a Wii date with Uncle. He had even drawn a Wii remote on the calendar at Nana and Papa's. This meant I got to have a few hours to myself! I spent it shopping!
Who needs sleds when you have ice to play on? The kids had fun playing on the ice in the driveway. We also went sledding and snowboarding again in the backyard.
Even the big kids played
Today (Monday) Abbi and Brenna did their hair and put makeup on before leaving for bowling.
Because of the 4K family day, Brenna and Brody are on a bowling kick and decided that is what they wanted to do on our President's Day vacation. We went to Winklebowl (as Brenna calls it) in Eau Claire. Tyler and Abbi came with and Carrie met us there. We bowled, ate lunch, and played some of the arcade games. It was a fun day! Brenna had one minor temper tantrum but recovered from it quickly.
