Ice Skating & Sledding

Ella all ready to go sledding :)

Rick & JD getting his sled just right...

that's JD going down the hill

Ella prefers going down the hill on her rump, and here she is truckin it back up the hill

Ice skating!

We truly have had a ball ice skating this winter, we have made a weekly effort to go, it is amazing how the kids are picking this up so effortlessly,........... but with many bruises:) Just this week we rented a walker for Ella and she really took off, (we had been just holding her up, but she loved the walker. Next time we will bring helmets, we had a couple of falls where they have hit their heads hard so we will be better prepared next time.

all smiles...

JD is doing so well, he is starting to get that gliding down.

he still does a fair amount of falling, therefore the bruises:)
