When you live in Maine you have to be active in the winter because the winter is just too long and beautiful to sit inside the whole time! And, thank goodness Matt and I are winter sports enthusiasts and now so is Henry! We want to put Henry on skis the day he learns to walk:) and to make sure he gets to know just how beautiful the state he lives in is. So, we have been taking him on many adventures and yesterday was a beautiful one! We headed out to one of the many places in the nearby area that offers miles of cross country ski and snowshoe trails. It was a chilly 23 degrees, but the sunshine warmed us up and of course so did carrying an 18 lb. child on our backs! We did a nice loop and knew by the wonderful sounds Henry made from the backpack that he really enjoyed his first snowshoe (out of the womb that is!). His cheeks were nice and rosy and he was fast asleep when we got back to the car and got him out of the backpack. He took a nice snooze on the drive home. We look forward to more snowstorms and more opportunities to get out and enjoy the great outdoors with Henry!
Enjoy the pics of us enjoying our Martin Luther King Jr. weekend!!
