This was our official first time sledding as a family. Why haven't we done it years past you ask? Well that's because Cyrena has always hated anything remotely adventurous. But somehow turning 3 1/2 and now 4 has given her the confidence and courage needed to try new things. I will show you some pics to show her progression.
First, here's a picture of her 'playing' in the snow 2 years ago (it was bad)

Now here's a picture of her actually sorta playing last year (red-rimmed eyes and fake smile....baby steps)

And on to this year....full-blown snow playing adventures!! David and I couldn't believe it; we are amazed at how much she's changed and matured.
Despite the melting snow, we had a great time!
Funny that she's wearing the same scarf/hat combo each year. A good investment obviously.

If you know Cyrena you know she's a talker. So as soon as they would get off the sled, she'd be telling me everything. In this video she kept telling me they "went backwards!!" I'm just glad they didn't run over the other kid.

A real, un-coerced smile with no red eyes...success!
Natalie enjoyed a little belly sledding, now that girl is adventurous! She loved every minute of her snow time.

Love this video. We found a short hill so the girls could go together

So cute...so proud of Cyrena. And Natalie is so into it!
Wow, that hill is pretty pathetic :) But looks like you made the best of it anyway. Wish we had snow here to go sledding!
We have found that kiddos definitely have a love hate relationship with that cold wet stuff.
I am very impressed with the organization of your winter attire. To be able to find the same combo three years running is pretty amazing. I can tell you for sure, that would not happen in my house.
Sorry, Jenna that just was me CHRISTY, no secret blog stalker for you. I forgot I was logged into her account for blog construction. TEE-HEE!
I loved reading all your Christmas posts-- it looks like you had lots of fun!! I'm so sorry we didn't get to see you guys-- let me know if/when you're in UT next and we will for sure make it a point to come and see you guys-- it's been way to long!!
What a fun time! Glad she liked it this year!! Love the pic of her and David walking!
Who is that guy with Elise? Does she have a serious boyfriend?
Was David singing as Kermet the Frog at the end of the video? Cory recognized your little snicker.
Totally great shots!! Love em!
