New Adventure

Kipp and I bought snowshoe kits earlier this winter. The kits came with the frame together and then we had to lace and finish them. We spent a few evenings lacing them and then he put several coats of the varathane finish on. By the time they were ready our snow had melted, so we have been eagerly awaiting more snow! Finally, it snowed! We took our shoes out last night for our first walk. It was wonderful...peaceful. We went out on the lake and the stars were beautiful. It's a workout, that's for sure, but it is so much fun. Today was a beautiful winter day...the sun was shining, there was no wind, and the twins needed some outside time. So we put our snowshoes on and took the girls on a sled ride. They were all giggles. They thought it was great fun to have Daddy pull them on the sled. I hope to make this a family adventure!
