Our Duluth weekend adventure!

Ashley made plans for us to go on a sleigh ride through the Junior League. Ashley keeps telling me that they Junior League women in Duluth are nothing like the ones in the South. After our adventure on Saturday I get it! Here are some pictures from our outing (not very many because I had to lug a toddler around)...

It was very cool riding in real horse-draw sleigh. It was very cold, too, and not at all what I was expecting. I felt dumb for not having my kids in snowpants and boots, but I was totally thinking "Junior League sleigh-ride" and imagining ladies in high-heeled boots and made-up to the nines out there. Not so! It was really outdoorsy (really!) and I hope we can go back next year now that I know what to expect. The boys will be decked out in outdoor winter wear and Jacob will wear thicker socks and bring his own boots (Jacob nearly lost his feet from the cold). Except, I still think I'll pass on walking on the frozen lake....

Thanks again, Ashley and Cody, for having us!
