Winter Adventures

For those of you that haven't heard yet, Tim and I decided a couple of weeks ago to build an ice rink in our backyard this winter.  We ordered some greenhouse covering plastic to hold the water in and grabbed some boards from Dad P. to create the frame of the rink.  The weather has fluctuated recently with some below freezing weather but not long enough to allow for the ice to remain frozen in our rink until.... this morning.  Tim tested the ice and although it wasn't strong enough to hold the weight of an adult, it was strong enough for the kids!  Here's a video of our children spending their first moments on our home ice!
