Spring in Kansas:

Just a few weeks ago, that meant record high temperatures. Next week it could mean tornados and severe storms. This weekend, it meant a blizzard.

Usually by March I am tired of seeing snow everywhere; but this last winter we didn't see hardly any of it, and we didn't get the chance to play in it either. Whenever it snows, we like to get the knee board, tie it behind Jon's truck and ride all around the neighborhood. By noon yesterday, the snow was melting fast, so we decided we better get out and take advantage! Usually when you wipe out on the knee board, it's not a big deal. But since the snow was melting at rapid speeds, the streets were really slushy, making for a nice ride and a painful nose dive into icy water when you fell off. It was still a lot of fun, and we got some great pictures too!
