Jude flying through the air after using his sled as a snowboard

First a short note from Jude: After a dry winter so far in Denver, we received about 5” on Friday night, to be sledded in by yours truly (Jude), and Anna. I tried to use my sled as a snowboard and failed miserably each time, making it about six feet before going OOF! Other than that, all I did was watch football and soccer, both of which ended in bad results. Then on Sunday, I burned about 10 calories all day, and other than that I played video games and watched TV.

Jude is right, we did have a pretty quiet weekend. There was some sledding on Saturday and then both kids built a snowman in the park. Of course, there was also a snowball fight and playing with some of the neighbors in the snow.

Anna had a school friend for a sleep over on Friday night and they had a great time. They watched a movie and in the morning made cookies and Marcy set up a little spa in the living room. It was quite indulgent.

Doing a “mani-pedi” at home

Today, was spent mainly in front of the TV with Premier League soccer in the morning and the NFL playoffs in the afternoon. Anna watched a movie while a lot of this was going on. Jude and I did get out during the day for a game of soccer in the snow and he also had to take a run during the afternoon. Anna had another friend over and they played in the park making an igloo.
