A sledding we will go!

Yesterday was cold, windy and SNOWY!  I did a BodyRock workout, rocked out on the elliptical for an hour and then spent the WHOLE afternoon like this..

apparently we were worn out. 

Thanks to that and the whole time change thing we were all up at 3:30 this morning.  By 8 the whole house was clean, and I was making chili for lunch while the short ribs were starting to cook in the crock pot.   The sun is out now and I am itching for a run.  Too bad it is only 10 degrees out with the wind chill. By noon it is supposed to be closer to 41 degrees, not sure what the wind chill will do to that but surely it won't be as bad as 10. 


The kids are getting dressed now to go SLEDDING!   My parents have a perfect kid size hill on their lawn.  You go just fast enough to have a great time, but don't have too far to go back up the hill.  Great exercise all around. Once you get cold, run inside and have hot cocoa!
I would never have the patience to make the above cookies, but I bet I could handle eating a few :)

I think the kids are ready, better jet!

    What a fun thing to do together! That picture of you all on the couch is adorable as well.
    I would never have the patience to make those cookies - and I don't know if I could eat them, they're too cute!

    wow. Amazing you are having that weather now! Looks like a great weekend, though (not the 3:30 a.m. part!)
