Brady's First Snow


So maybe it's not REALLY his FIRST snow but it is the first time he was actually out in it without being in his car seat. Brady and I went to my parents this weekend because I started working in Chanute one weekend a month. Mom and dad get to watch Brady and I get to work.
Well anyway, while I was in Chanute it started snowing and by snowing I don't mean a few little flakes, I'm talking really really snowing. Later that evening we loaded into Dad's Bad-ass truck and off we went in about 4-5 inches of snow and still snowing. On the way home I asked dad if he wanted me to pull him behind the truck on the sled and he's like why don't I pull you. Well that was that and I figured it ended there. However when we got home dad started messing around outside and next thing I knew he was throwing warm clothes at me and telling me to get dressed. There I stood in Jason's BDU pants, DCU tops, dads coveralls, an old green coat, a head/ear wrap, a hood thing and gloves, all ready for the cold. So I got on the sled and off we went. It was so much fun, the snow was so thick that if I wasnt' in dad's tire tracks I really was plowing snow plus it was still really coming down. So that ended and dad got a great picture of me COVERED in snow but it's on their camera.
So now it's Sunday and Dad decided Brady needed to get out there and experience his first real snow. So we got him all bundled up and took him out to sit on the sled. I don't think he really cared except for how bright it was. It was so cute and he kept sticking his hand in it and we had to take it out. Then we went sledding again, leaving Brady at home with mom, at first we tried the dunebuggy but it didn't have very good traction so dad got the truck out again (Bad-Ass truck if you missed it earlier) and off we went. We went all over Coyville (where my parents live). I was chased by dogs and dragged through ditches and pulled 35 miles per hour down a snowy icy road. It was the best time I have ever had behind a truck.
