Ice Skating

January 31, 2015 - So, I'm kind of facing a dilemma with this blog.  On one hand, my family is taking more photos than ever before, so I could post pretty often, but averaged quality of the posts would decrease because so many posts would consist of cellphone quality photos and the ever repugnant, but increasingly prominent "selfie." 
So, I'll try to find a good recipe for a mixture of everyday life photos and event photos taken with the nice camera.  If you have a preference for one or the other and for the frequency of these posts - please leave a comment and let me know which kinds of posts you enjoy the most. 
(Or I could just look at the statistical data for each post and utilize my online marketing acumen to figure it out...
...nah, just leave a comment!)

Alright, Noah and I seem to have become the perennial social butterflies of the family.  So, this evening we attended the FCM annual family ice skate.  It worked out that Marscel was able to come along with us.


The beautiful ice rink at Shaw Park


It was a beautiful night for ice skating.
Granted, I'd use that phrase for any day that had a temperature under 60 degrees, but it was a "beautiful night" in the conventional sense.


This picture was taken by Melanie Thomas (who came later to skate) and stolen from the Thomas family blog...shhh...keep it a secret and she'll never find out...

Noah and I loved being able to catch up with friends and we had a blast ice skating!

Ice Skating

January 8, 2015 - After such cold temperatures last week, Noah had the brilliant idea of checking the depth of the ice on a creek nearby...the result was some fantastic ice skating!


Noah drove us down to the creek on the four wheeler



So wonderfully rustic…we sat on the rocks to get our skates laced up



We had an enormous "rink" all to ourselves!


We could skate on almost all of the ice you see in this picture

These two left brainers have such expressive faces!



Lol…yes, despite my countenance – I’m having fun. :)
