Walking on Ice

This winter we have embraced the cold.  The Christmas Present from the big man in red was ice skates.  We enrolled the kids in ice skating lessons - because, let's face it, the parents from Virginia can not teach the kids in Minnesota how to skate.  Despite our best intentions, the girls stepped onto the ice, and glided as if they were made to ice skate. Granted, the continual roller blading in the summer months is suspected to have helped a bit. Here they are, day 1.
 



They have enjoyed ice skating so much that Joe purchased a pair of skates and has taken them out regularly - which has been fun for all.  This weekend we took them out for likely the last time this winter.  I think they love the winter more than I thought possible. The temp outside? 35F, you would think from these photos it was in the 50s. Nothing but joy.






Now, let's bring on the spring flowers!
