It was a beautiful day in Calgary and the kids finally made some good use of the rink I built for them!

As a first try the rink is not too bad. But we’re having trouble getting water to stay in one end. Yes, the ground is not even, but I think there might be a hole in the tarp too. Yech. So the ice is pretty thin at one end, but the kdis had fun anyway!

We’ve been having a very strange “winter” this year and so far it feels more like spring. We took a lovely walk through Carburn Park today and stopped for awhile to play at the playground.

We got together with my sister and her family over the holidays and we took the kids up to Jack Seaton Park to blow off some energy. Andrew and Kelly had a great time at the playground and chased each other up and down the slides and played together on the swing and the climbers. Hannah and Melanie also played together but were much less active…

Andrew got a new scooter for Christmas. Since we don’t have very much snow this winter we decided that it would be fun to go give it a try at Carburn. Melanie brought hers too and they both made it all the way around the paved path in the park. Andrew looked like he was working pretty hard at points, but he got better and better as we went.
