Winter Fun

Sorry for the scattered pictures - it was just easier to download a whole bunch then to organize them! Despite the often cold weather we have managed to keep very busy this winter with many different activities. The kids had skating lessons every Monday evening and performed in a skating carnival at the end of the season! Mackenzie's group skated to an Elvis tune - complete with poodle skirts! And Cole's wild and crazy group were a bunch of cool dudes from the 50's sporting sun glasses and hockey skates! We also spent alot of time playing outside. We had the biggest snowdrifts ever on our yard this year - some of them as tall as our neighbour's garage! Our yard was a great place for the kids to play and explore. We also spent time again on our neighbour's pond skating and playing hockey! Our new snowmobile also provided lots of entertainment along with our neighbour's Kitty Kat which the kids loved to ride! The kids also found plenty to do inside from painting to building huge forts in the living room to playing dressup! Poor Cole - one of these days he's not going to let his sister put him into dresses anymore!!! Does anyone recognize the lovely glasses Cole is wearing with the green dress?

We also spent two weekends with friends at their cabins! The kids had a great time snowmobiling and playing outside with their friends. They even tried their hand at ice fishing - no luck though! We also braved the cold and had a wiener roast We spent two weekends away at friends' outside when it was -30!
