Winter fun with our cousins

We have been trying to take advantage of the snow and all the outside opportunities it presents.  We have been sledding a few times at the elementary in New Richmond just like Mom and her sisters used to do as well as ice skating.  We are planning a skiing and snow tubing outing yet this year also.  This past Saturday, well the first half of the day anyway, was perfect for being outside.

Here are Leyton, Grace and Lucy on one of our first outings that was pretty chilly, I think it was New Year's Day and it was cold but they had fun looking for 'diamonds.'  These are broken pieces of sleds that they find buried in the snow =) To have that imagination.......

 Here are Lucy and Mom ice skating.

Grace with her little Hanna Anderson twins.  We took a picture of them all lined up in their matching snow outfits, pretty cute.

 Lucy ice skating, she really liked it and reminded me that Grace got to take skating lessons and said she would like to do that also =)

 This sled that the Weimert's brought was great we could fit a bunch of the cousins on here.

 The clan walking up the hill.  We are amazed at how great the kids do trekking back up the hill.  They love it and haven't complained yet.

 It is hard to tell but the kids are way down the hill in this picture and are just starting their trek back up, they look so cute all lined up and Lucy is on her way down to meet them.

Tommy's Baptism

A couple of weeks ago we got to be part of Tommy's Baptism.  He was a very happy little guy and it was a nice service.  Afterwards we had brunch with the family.
