Easter Surprises!

Easter morning came and in my basket were some pretty neat toys, like some card games, stencils, and a new addition to my collection of "Cars" characters, Lizzy! What you can sort of see in the picture are the Cars marshmallow pops in the shapes of Sally and Lightning McQueen. I wasted no time in gobbling them right up!

I must give props to Mommy who has taken the title of NCAA bracket winner in the house...ALREADY!!! Her picks gave her a commanding lead over both mine and Daddy's, giving her the win before the first weekend of play was even complete! We'll get you back next year Mommy, so don't go thinking there'll be any repeats in your future!

Unfortunately, the Easter Egg Hunt we planned on going to yesterday was snowed out. That's right, one single snowstorm near the end of March brought us 14 inches of snow in less than 24 hours. So, what do you do when faced with that? Go sledding, of course!

This was the first time we'd been able to hit the hills all winter since either Mommy or I managed to have a cold whenever enough snow fell over a weekend. Daddy knew of some great hills near where he goes to school, so we all headed over there. This was taken when we all went down a hill and into a snow bank from the plowed parking lot to the left. It would have been funny if Mommy had gone further up the pile and down the other side!

This hill was the biggest and the best. I started out having to ride with someone but as I became more seasoned, I was able to start going down by myself. Look ma, no hands!

Joey and Mommy snow angels.

Is there a sledding event in the Olympics? I should start training for it because I'm a natural!

Oops, well even the best sledders lose hold of the rope sometimes. But what a fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon!
