Megan and I were at Mom and Dad's house last night for dinner. It began to snow and Megan asked if I remembered the time we went sledding with Deryk and his high school girlfriend, Trisha. I did, and actually I was just thinking about it the other day. Here's the story for you.
Deryk and Trisha decided to take Megan and I sledding on a hill nearby our house in Canton. We'd been sliding for a while, trying to avoid a large rock that formed a jump on the hill between two trees. Eventually one of us hit it. Well, the one who hit it just so happened to be Megan. She was probably about 8 at the time. Megan, in her hot pink snow suit, (this makes it even funnier now, if you know Megan, she does not wear hot pink) FLEW off her sled, about 10 feet in the air, while the sled stayed on the snow, still going down the hill. Somehow, Megan managed to land directly back on the sled without hitting either of the trees and continued down the hill until she reached the bottom.
Of course we all were very conscerned about Meg, thinking she must be in pain. When she turned around and smiled we all laughed until our tummies hurt. Deryk fell on the ground in fits of laughter. I would give anything to hear his laughter again... He was an amazing person... I miss him like crazy.
