Today I have a whole bunch of pictures for you.
This past weekend was finally nice and cold. Our neighbors invited us over to go ice skating on their pond. I took a few ice skating lessons several years ago and hadn't done it since. It was so much fun!
These pictures are from two different days. The first day it was so windy, if you stood with your back to it, it would push you right across the pond. Not the best when your trying to learn, but it was fun. : )
Hillary and I.
Amadu took a fall while trying to chase his sisters around.
My brother, Ben.
Who is this?
Adama really enjoyed doing trains.
Emily, Hillary, and Ben.
Emily and Hillary had taken ice skating lessons so they could do a few spins and different things that if I attempted them I would most likely be sprawled on the ice. :)
Thabeh wasn't quite sure of being on the ice at first, but she was zipping around in no time.
One of the interesting things was occansionally when we were just sliding along, there would be a low sounding POP! The ice had cracked some. It was a little nerve wracking when it did it, but we didn't fall through at all.
Look out, here comes Amadu!
Last Friday night (25), Jonathan and I slept outside again. Becky wanted me to take some pictures just to prove we were out there. : )
We thought it was going to be quite windy so we put the tents right behind the house and there was hardly any breeze at all.
It was around 16 degrees, but it felt warmer without the wind.
Becky was waiting for me to give her the camera.
She gave us a concert before we went to bed by sticking my cd player in the window and played an Irish cd. : )
All set to burrow into our sleeping bags.
So, that was our weekend and now the snow is almost gone. : (
Until next time...God bless.
