"sledding" at 3am

Since we've gotten Jack I've wanted to have him pull a sled and see what would happen. Know we have Jill and she is a little bit bigger than Jack so I figure this year will be the year if we get the snow. However, I didnt expect it would happen at 3am in the morning. We got some slushy snow last night and it covered the grass. Around 3am Jack woke me up to go outside. (unfortunately this is a nightly thing) I climb out of bed and hook Jack to his leash and then Jill (she gets leashed at night b/c if she sees an animal she'll take off and I can't see her/ don't want to chase her when I could be sleeping)Jack does his thing and Jill starts going crazy. Since it snowed I could see pretty well and sure enough the coyotes were out. Now Jack and Jill see them and take off. The next thing I know I'm "sledding" down the hill in our back yard. Crocs + snow= no traction. I have a hard time controlling Jack with gym shoes and concrete. My only saving grace before the creek was the fact that I was able to wedge my foot in a hole Jill had dug. By time it was all finished every part of my clothing was covered in slushy snow. Dave found it pretty funny when he woke up and took the dogs out to see the "tracks" I left in the snow...well he found it funny until he put the shoes on and they were filled with water from the melted snow :)
