Swim Lessons

 Hanako won't get in the water, so Leigh gets lessons all to herself, and likes them!

 Danny and Leigh enjoying a friendly race.

Blizzard!

The big snow storm really shut us down last week. Danny and the neighbors tried to make the most of it, but it was cold, dark, and SLOW skating. By the time we were done shoveling the rink, more snow had come down where we started.

 The trusty car that got Dad into work, when those who have all-wheel drive luxury automobiles were "snowed in". We're still waiting for some of them to show up at work.

  Our neighbors enjoying the fruit of their labor - while Dad was at work, they cleared the rink.

Sleepy Sunday Morning

Just our usual Sunday morning, doing laps around the kitchen.

February Skating

I spend most of my time these days eating, sleeping, going to work, and worrying about the weather. When it thaws, I order more hockey gear, then check the forecast hourly until ice forms again, then keep checking to see how long we will have ice.  Here's Danny testing out the new goal with our neighbor.

Leigh out on the ice, too.  After whacking the puck a bit she announced that she wanted to play goalie.

She did just what she learned from her brother - sat right in front of the goal.
