A Snowy Sleepover

Yesterday we found out that our dear friends had their power knocked out by the neighbors tree and they were without heat and electricity. The neighbor had a heart condition so he was taken by fire/rescue to his sons place and left the Kullman family in limbo. So they packed up their
crew and headed down the street to the Hirschberg Hotel. We had 10 kids ranging from 13 down to 18mos. When I told my kids they screamed in delight.....whooohoooo....yeah! So we packed em in, here, there and everywhere! Fun memories!


Ryann, Gracie, Peyton, Maggie, Robbie, and Landon


The whole crew eating breakfast - Jill and Brady

This first pic was yesterday in the blizzard and the pic below of today....how beautiful!

This was the top of the "most awesome sledding hill". The picture below is the bottom of the "most awesome sledding hill". Now, the dads were working very hard on making this a fun ride. They even talked me into taking a run down when all I had on was a sweatshirt, jeans, and slippers with NO socks. It was a blast.

Now, as you look at these pictures of the sledding hill....is there anything that.....ohhh....lets say.....that might cause one to worry....I mean, usually those yellow lines are found on a main road or Route......right??....exactly. The pile of snow you see is the end of the sledding hill...that's right....your eyes aren't playing tricks on you it is several feet from the street. The husbands assured us that it was perfectly safe(eyes popping out of head).
Jill was equally concerned but we were trying not to be the party poopers and trust that they knew best.


The kids had such a great time and the dads got into the action with a snowball fight!
