The Daredevils and Meh

It’s no secret I’ve got three kids, and they all have their own personality. Frequently they join forces and that can spell trouble. Usually they join forces to annoy me, but after the storm they joined forces to create a wonderland for themselves.

Teddy and Stella built their own sledding hill. Okay, Ted did go out and help with the hill, but Teddy was hell bend on having it. He worked really hard and he was rewarded.

Maizie wasn’t really into it (hence the meh). Maizie was more interested in eating the snow. Even though it was starting to rain, they were going to play.

They had their hill, they had their sled, and they were ready for action. The screams and laughing was causing the dog to have barking fits. She was not pleased with the sledding situation. For the first five or six times they went down it, the dog barked at them as they climbed to the top of the picnic table. She finally gave up that battle.

How Teddy didn’t break something is beyond me. His last run down the hill was his best. I was walking toward the back door and I heard a loud crash, it was Teddy’s head. He managed to get the steer the sled straight, through the backyard, headfirst into the door. Unfortunately, by the afternoon the hill had begun to disappear.

If we get more snow like it’s predicted, I’m sure Teddy and Stella will rebuild (and maybe Maizie will go for a ride).
