Snow shoeing

Since I haven't been able to snowboard this season, I have been itching to get up in the mountains and enjoy the snow. My mom was a trooper and did the "heavy lifting". I could barely bend down to get my own snow shoes on.
It started out really fun, but things went from bad to worse with Otis. It was snowing and he kept saying, "eye, eye" as the flakes went in his eyes...
So we let him walk (big mistake). He wanted to have his own poles
It was fun to be up in the beautiful mountains. But to be honest, it was really a disaster. Too bad we didn't take any pictures of him kicking and screaming the whole way back to the car so we could really document how it was!

Oh man - he's starting the terrible 2's a bit early :) Molly throws a tantrum a day at LEAST! The snow looks beautiful - glad you were able to get some fresh air! You look great, and you'll be able to touch those toes again before you know it :)

Oh my gosh, we should have invited Betsy. But then again, she may not have ever wanted to have children. No offense to Otis. WE only snow shoed 15 minutes. Would it have been worth the drive Bets?

He looks happy in the pictures:) You are a trooper that doesn't even sound fun to me right now.
