We have had an unusually cold winter this year. It's a little gloomy sometimes. Today we made it up to 30 degrees for the first time in a month and a half and the sun is shining. It is beautiful. We all got ice skates for Christmas so we decided to put them to good use. Lauren was awesome. It was only her 2nd time on skates and she made it around the rink without falling. Dustin is a pro, mostly because his skates have double blades and are a lot easier to balance. Whitney and Katelyn had fun playing hockey with Todd. Falling down got old for the little kids after a while, so they spent a lot of time "resting" on the ground. Then they ditched the ice skating altogether and headed for the playground.
