We woke up this morning to a beautiful winter wonderland. Everything was white. It was magnificent. I snuggled into my warm bed feeling as if God had covered us in a white blanket while we slept. So cozy.
The schools were closed today, so Jacob and I had the day off. We just enjoyed the morning doing, pretty much, nothing. I just love sitting in my fluffy pink bathrobe drinking coffee on a cold morning. I love to have the moment to be thankful for all that I've been given.
Anyway, around noon, Jacob and I bundled up and headed out into the snow. We have the "perfect" hill for sledding behind our house. So, we climbed the hill about a dozen times and swooshed back down to the bottom. Before today, I knew I am out of shape - but today proved just how out of shape I really am. My treadmill will be my best friend from now on! I was huffing and puffing - my heart was pounding and, well, you get the picture. But, did we have fun!!!
Then, we had a snowball fight and ended our time outside building a cute little snow man in the front yard. He is waving to the traffic going by.
So, we came inside, changed into some dry clothes and headed to the library. What a wonderful day.
I am so blessed. I'm also beginning to get a little sore. But, that's o.k. I wouldn't have it any other way.

That is a wonderful day, and I am so glad you blogged about it so that you could preserve it forever!
On a different note... I realize I am out of shape every time we go to church b/c we have to climb these stairs that make my legs burn every time! It's a spiritual and physical work out for me on Sundays! ;)
