Stepping outside to open my car this Saturday so I could get my gloves I quickly fell on the driveway. It was so slick. The ice was everywhere. The girls were outside playing, I bundled up to see what we could do outside in the blustery weather.
We took a piece of compressed particle board from the garage, split it in half and tried to "sled" down the driveway. This wasn't steep enough, we weren't getting anywhere enough speed. I had an old hose in the back yard that I needed to throw away. Instead we used this hose for leverage. The girls held on to the hose, sat on the old particle board, and I pulled them fast down the sidewalk. This was so much fun, we all had a great time and it got us out of the house. I could see the smiles on everyone driving by the house, looking at the fun we were having.
