taking risks and loving it

I’ve been away from my blog for a bit. Now I have lots of stuff and not so much time. But here are a couple of photos of Dunedin, Griffin and friend G taking some risks and loving it. Note Dunedin’s not so sure expression at the beginning of this ride. But by the bottom, pure joy.

Her love of the snow and sledding has been one of our unexpected pleasures of the season. Last year was such a miserable mix of clinging, slipping, whining, unsure footing… And that was just me. Dunedin had a more difficult time. With both her and Griffin (who was just crawling), outdoor adventures were things to be avoided at all costs. But this year all is different. The right warm gear and enough self-assuredness has made all the difference. She has even been on skis a few times!
