I thought it was April.

Yesterday was normal, 10 degree high.  But then this morning I woke up to this (and it’s still heavily falling):

Sledding for the First Time

I went sledding for the first time in my life this weekend. Besides the fact that my toes and fingers were freezing in the -25 weather, it was pretty darn fun. Someone had previously made a little jump on the hill so mini-adventures were had.

Calgary staff team + sleds and GT’s + snowboards + little jump + camera = hilarity!

Sweet GT

Tom and Mindy

Darren

After finishing in the afternoon we uploaded the videos and watched them. Much laughter. We decided we weren’t done yet. Back to the hill with a couple of snowboards in the evening. The little jump proved itself quite little. Pretty short lived but more videos came out of it anyway.

This video reminds me of Mario Kart. I look like a character from the SNES Mario Kart!

There’s tons of other videos, lots of crashing and burning and wipeouts (ahem, Darren mostly).

In the words of Keith Urban…

Tonight, I wanna cry. Feels like – 40′s… ahhhhhhh!

Calgary: So Temperamental

Sometimes i think Calgary has the weirdest weather patterns. Today was an amazingly mild 8 degrees. Tomorrow will have snow on the ground at -9 in the morning (with a “feels like” -17) and -12 in the evening (with a “feels like” -19). So weird. A few weeks into moving over to Calgary, it was a really hot 20 degrees in the afternoon but a few hours later in the evening it was blizzarding outside, literally slapping wind and snow everywhere. SO WEIRD.

How many times can i use “weird” in this post? Weird.
