Saturday night we were invited to a Christmas Party of one of our church members. They have a family of wild Raccoons they have been feeding on their back porch for years. We all took turns feeding them by holding a bowl full of dog food down for them to come eat. We had as many as nine come up and eat.
The kids had their first basketball games this weekend. Landon's team won and Mason's team lost. It was not a fun time for Mason.
Today after church we went sledding up on Middle Moutain. There is still almost a foot of snow up on the mountain. We went to a place called the gravel pit. There was a big hill there and me a Mason and Landon climbed
up and came down on our sleds. The first couple of times were good. Then on the third time I was coming down, I slid about half way off of my sled and was hanging off the side. That is when it happened....... I hit a big rock hidden under the snow. The boys thought it was so funny until they realized I couldn't breathe. Of course I tried to make out like I wasn't that hurt. I told them I think I needed a break so I hobbled over to the car while they went back up the hill to sled some more. As I struggled for breath and drug myself over to the Jeep, it hit me..... I can't keep up with my kids anymore. I may have broken a few ribs and my knee is swollen but hopefully after a few days of rest, I will be as good as new..... and I am sure I will try to once again do whatever the boys do. This time, I will check the hill for rocks first! Hope to see you all soon. God bless.
