Ice skating...

Last night was finally opening night of the ice rink! For the last couple of weeks everytime we would drive past it the kids would ask if it was ready yet! So last night when we saw it was open we decided to go drive by. That turned into let's go walk around on the ice which turned into hey let's go rent some skates! 

A nice little skater was kind enough to offer take our picture after she saw that the whole family was in there except for me! Pretty adorable if you ask me! We skated around, some of us fell more than others (richard) and we had a grand time! So grand that the kids couldn't wait to go again!

Well renting skates is expensive so luckily we found a box in Grandma princesses garage with all of our sizes! Lucky, lucky!

The boys wanted to hit the ice...literally today so we let them do just that!

Jack is doing pretty good...he's really good at jumping around to get where he wants to go! Actually skating not so much! But he has fun and that is all that matters!

Harper loves to skate around on her boots! She also loves laying on the ice! She says, "look at me I'm a ice princess!"  She really is just the cutest girl ever!

Trey is picking up the skating really good! He skates all over and falls a lot to but you'd never know it because he bounces right back up! Here's to more family ice skating adventures!!!!!

Cheers to a new year!!!!

We have been looking forward to this day for so long!!!! We have been ready to say goodbye to 2013 for at least 6 months. This year has been rough for us to put it mildly! 

We were all excited to ring in a new year and hopefully some good luck! The kids loved popping the mormon bubbly in the fancy glasses! Harper loved it the most. She kept saying, "can I have s'more please??!!" 

We all hung out watching movies snacking and watching the firework show the neighbors were putting on from our back patio!

At about 11:20 some little people were starting to have a hard time keeping their eyes open! 

10 minutes later the first and only party pooper was out like a light. We kept trying to talk to him to keep him awake but it was not happening! I was proud of jack though because he is not a night owl so I was pretty impressed he made it to 11:30!

When midnight struck we kissed 2013 goodbye!!!! Happy new year!!!!
