Over the past few months, we have befriended a teacher from the middle school who has been kind enough to invite us television-deprived JVs over to watch some football games. Last Saturday, we kicked it up a notch and utilized her snow tubes and ATV for a fun day in the snow. James hopped in the driver's seat and Peggy, Sarah, Annie, and Jess were brave enough to let him pull them on snow tubes around the property.
James started off going easy on the girls, but once he was comfortable enough with the ATV, he really stepped on the gas and enjoyed flipping all of us off of the tubes. After a few hours of cold winds and wipeouts, Kathy invited us in for some hot chocolate and snacks. James stuck around outside to enjoy one last ride on the ATV, and the next thing we knew, he was on the ground and the ATV was flipped over onto its back!! In true heroine fashion, Annie and Jess sprinted into action to save their fallen roommate. As James waited by the overturned ATV, obviously unharmed, Annie and Jess ran across the field to help him pick the ATV back up. Jess ran a little too hard, however, and sprained her ankle in the process!! (Thanks, James).
By the time Annie and Jess arrived to the scene of the accident, Kathy had skidded to a halt near us in her car to make sure no one was dead. After James admitted the only thing he hurt was his pride, we headed back to the house for the hot chocolate that was awaiting us!
