Not So Smooth Sledding

Colorado had a big blizzard blow through on Thursday night into Friday morning. Stephen picked his parents up in Denver on Friday morning during the tail end of the blizzard. Anyway, the sun came out and all the snow started melting that afternoon. We tried to go sledding in town at different parks, but kids and sun had made all of the runs melted and grassy. SOOO we headed back into the forest to go on a hill behind Pattie Wennig's house. It all started out fun and happy as you can see above with Kaylee pushing Grandma Brenda and Rebecca.


Then trauma happened and I'm just sooo grateful that it wasn't worse!!! The picture below is of the run before the accident. Nathan and Kaylee were sledding down quite fast and Kaylee was on the front of the sled. She hit the corner of this railroad tie with her face. Yes I did say, her FACE. She let out a shrill scream and I let out an obsenity. I ran down and her nose was bleeding and starting to swell up. Good thing we had snow near by to ice it down. She was so good to keep ice on it. For a while we thought that maybe she had broken her nose. I kept making her look at me head on to check her out. So once again Spring Break has not been very smooth.
