Snowy Walk
It was a beautiful day here in Nearly Canada yesterday. It was about 25 degrees, almost no wind, bright, sunny skies... just gorgeous! Since Vince had the car for most of yesterday, our only transportation was by foot, so we decided to go for a walk in order to enjoy the beautiful weather... especially since it's the last nice day expected for a while. The high on Sunday is -5.
So we layered up and loaded up. Now you have to understand that pushing a running stroller, which when fully loaded with all 3 boys, weighs well over 100 pounds, is much like pushing a lead box through the sand... it's tough work! I walked for about 30 minutes and got quite the work-out... then Ezra and Asher got out to run.
The older two boys ran... and ran... and ran. When all was said and done, I think they ran close to a mile.
Obed remained happily in the stroller, enjoying watching his older brothers run about.
Asher fell when he was running and his face got stuck this way... but I guess it didn't really get stuck, but rather was frozen because his tongue is no longer hanging out this morning. Phew!

Your boys are gorgeous!!! I'm ready to be able to take a walk with out little guy. It's probably still a little too cold for a newborn but I sure am ready.
I'm glad you all were able to get out of the house for a bit...since the very, very cold, freezing temperatures are due to arrive about the same time we do!
Wow...cool stroller...adorable kiddos & pics...great exercise...sounds like a very successful outing! It's a lot of fun to read your blog Kirsten and what a great way for you to remember all the 'little' things that so often get lost among the 'big' things in our lives! Merry Christmas and many blessings to you and your family!
