a boogie board, pizza pan and snow

Comment Published at 19:5319:536 comments6 comments120 Visits120 VisitsReport

Tell me this isn't funny!

We don't usually get this much snow around my neck of the woods, so we are unprepared to enjoy it, but it doesn't mean we couldn't. Daddy wrapped a boogie board with lawn trash bag and duct tape. It seemed like it was going to work.

Nope, it didn't work.

And then it was the pizza pan's turn. Didn't work either.

There are a few things that worked against Daddy's ingenuity here: the snow was too dry and fluffy and the our hill wasn't much of a hill. Later in the day, we tried Curious George's sandbox cover and of course that only provided a lot of laugh and no success. We had a lot of fun though!

I tried calling stores around the area if they had any sleds left and I got laughed at. They've all been snagged by the less ingenious people in the area who instead opted to get drive out and buy a real sled. lol

 LOL! That is awesome! We just got 7-8 inches the other day, but it's all melting now.  

 Btw, your backyard looks gorgeous!

Glad you found it funny. It cracks me up even harder the more I watch it.

Over the years I've noticed that Australia is opposite of the US in terms of the weather. I find it odd too, but it helps when we're freezing our buns off and I read about warm weather.
