I have been trying to come up with a clever caption for this photo all day, but nothing quite right comes to mind. I wanted to post it anyway though, because it's silly. Eve has me seriously beat in the abs deparment! :)<\/p><\/div>\n

Around 1:30pm this afternoon it was sunny and almost 37° outside. Not the norm for January around here! I suggested a walk to the playground and they LOVED the idea. However, they were both still in pjs, and it turns out they hadn’t had lunch (I was at the gym at lunch time and they told Alan they weren’t hungry), and Eve was working on cleaning up a monster sized mess in her room… so it was 3:15 before we finally got on the road!! A might chillier and darker by then! During that time one of Eve’s classmates had called (her mom, really) and agreed to meet us at the playground so there was no turning back on the plan. <\/p>\n

We walked to the playground and discovered they had flooded and frozen the field to create a skating rink! It was pretty bare-bones, lots of breaks and cracks, grass poking through in parts, but impressive nonetheless considering the weather we’ve been having lately. The kids were thrilled and “skated” for awhile. <\/p>\n

\"owl<\/a>

Did you know owls can sneaker skate?<\/p><\/div>\n

\"lex\"<\/a>

The car didn't work so well on the ice.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"leaf\"<\/a>

There were lots of leaves frozen under the ice.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"laying<\/a>

I don't know how many times I had to tell those crazy kids not to lay down on the ice! <\/p><\/div>\n
