more ice skating
The girls really wanted to take daddy and show him their ice skating skills.... It was way more crowded than on a weekday, but the girls managed to weave their way in and out of all the people. On our way out we stopped to watch the high school boys

ice fishing
Today was the perfect weather for a family ice fishing event. It's also the first time we've seen the sun in weeks. 😎 One of the nearby cities does this event every year. They provide everything, so all you have to do it show up. We didn&
