Another First!!!

Today was such a pretty day that we decided to do something that I had never done before. I went SNOWSHOEING! It was a lot of fun, and not as hard as I expected but I think it has the potential of being very hard when you have big, heavy snowshoes on. The snowshoes we used are meant for racing in the Winter Sports Meet that they have along the coast therefore they were not clunky or big, they were very lightweight which was nice. It was interesting trying to get them done up but I eventually got them on my feet and made my way down over the steps... maybe not the best idea. Anyway, then we went on our adventure. We went up a beautiful path and just had a great time exploring and seeing if snowshoes really work. I gave my snowshoes a true test: I went in snow that if I wasn't wearing snowshoes I would probably be up to my waist. However, with the snowshoes I probably only went down a couple of inches. That was good!
I am so thankful for being able to experience so many different things up here. I think this weekend we are going to rent some skis. Now that could be interesting! But I am sure we will have lots of fun and we will experience some more of God's beauty.
Enjoy the pictures!

Many Blessings,
