Life Is Good....

This afternoon we went over to our friend's house for a little sledding. Sherry, Lynelle and I are mommy friends who met through mom's club. We have gotten close, our kids enjoy each other, and we speak often of involving our men in a playdate. So today we did it. We kind of invited ourselves over to Sherry's for some sledding. Her backyard is SO AWESOME! Just the right size hill. The kids had a blast and as you can see from the pictures the parents enjoyed flying down the hill too. There were even some races. When the kids were done sledding we went inside for a few cocktails while the kids had hot chocolate and then played. It was a great way to end the weekend. I feel so happy this evening because I love that our children are connecting us to some great adults.

I think about growing up and some of the families we knew as kids. My parents still hang out with them. As I watched today as Sherry and Lynelle laughed and raced down the hill I wondered...will we be three couples that can enjoy life later on...when life isn't all about the kids. I hope so...

Thanks Sherry to opening up your home to us. IT WAS AWESOME!
