Last year, I thought our family shred adventures were epic. Well, this year I am blown away by the amount of fun we have as a family shredding all sorts of runs. We also hit a huge milestone this year. This season, our youngest daughter has learnt to carve! She is five years old and…
Well, my five year old daughter’s feet must have grown a couple of sizes because her feet are now almost as big as her older sister! Thankfully, I found a used pair of Sorel’s that were given to us from their older cousins. They fit her feet and I was able to drop them off…
