Ice Skating.

We have a full house for Christmas this year! We all decided it would be fun to do some ice skating, a popular sport around here. Skylar was so excited to ice skate because she saw Olivia the pig do it on NickJr, and she just knew it was going to be so fun.

As soon as she got on the ice and realized it was slippery and not as easy as she thought it was going to be, she started to cry. Nicole and I were helping her.
Then we tried the sliding walker.......It wasn't going well. So Skylar and Noni got a snack and warmed up.

Meanwhile........

Josh and Nicole pretended they were figure skaters.....
Getting ready to a trick.......
Or not......


We got tired quickly.
But Skylar came back ready to try again, and she got the hang of it. In fact, we had to pull her away at the end. She made four loops and wanted to keep going. She's been asking to go back ever since.

Afterwards we grabbed some lunch and warmed up by a fire. My parents have turned into a matching couple.....

  1. How fun! Hugs to all! Skylar could be a "Peggy Fleming"! I know it! I know it! Just $25,000 and it can be so! I can see there was raw talent ingnored by your mom and dad in your family. Josh and Nicole are AMAZING! ;) Truely..I love it and your parents look so CUTE!

    I had my winter fun. I hunted yesterday and Gracie was primo! We had a long run after hounds that went waaaaay out of country. I had to go down to the "highway" and try and slow traffic so they would not hit any hounds coming back in to the huntsmans' horn. Some drivers just ignored me. How rude!One hound was still out when we left..worried about the cold night. But we have hay and in a suggle for them until we get back to get them home. 99% of the time, they are in within an hour of when we leave. Just a dusting of snow here. Better than last year!
    BTW.. Hunt friends send their love. They LOVE the pics of your house on Facebook! They ask about you guys and are praying for all of you.
    God is Good...and Gracious!
    Love you!
