Over the weekend my mom was visiting and we were all feeling a little adventurous and wanted to get out and enjoy the nice weather. The problem is that my husband is really good at physical activities and tends to master them almost instantly. I do not. I struggle and then get grumpy. Really grumpy. I thought we might try cross-country skiing. Since neither of us had gone before, it would be a new experience for both of us. But just to level the playing field I thought I would hook him up to a harness and let him pull our two year old daughter behind him.

But once we got into it and figured out what we were doing, we realized cross-country skiing was a lot of fun. See? Those are not fake smiles.



Even Ana had a great time. She loves riding in the Burley behind Sim on a bike so we thought we would extent the fun and bought the ski attachment for this exact purpose. She was a little confused at first (and a little scared whenever any of us slipped and fell down) but otherwise enjoyed herself. She especially loved it when we stopped for breaks and let her get out and walk around in the snow.


We enjoyed the lovely weather and the beautiful mountains that surrounded us. It was quite a workout and I am very sore today, but overall I think it was a great experience. One that we will definitely be doing again.
