Already our moving to CT has paid off. We Love Love Love the location. The lake in our front yard ROCKS!!! Our neighbors are AWESOME!! and we live close enough to Reyna that we get to see her way more often than we did before. Ok the house needs some work but, you can't beat the location.
Reyna's kids had a Winter Break at the end of February. So, they packed up and came on down for a few days. It was so much fun. The lake was frozen over so we were able to make a rink for the kids and let them skate everyday, pretty much all day.

| Me pulling Chloe and Bridget on the tobagon on the ice and Joe skating next to us. Now when they all piled on the sled was almost not pull-able. It is really hard to pull a sled on ice. Need to work on traction for next year. |
 |
| I don't know if you can tell but we threw an old door down to get from land out to the stronger ice, then we moved out a bench to sit on and all of the gear. |

| Chloe and Daddy on the ice getting ready to skate. Yep, we took a wagon out on the ice too. |

| Chloe using crates to get around on the ice. |
 |
| Here you can see the rink we shoveled. Since it had snowed we had to go out and shovel the snow off the ice to make room to skate. The kids soon figured out they could skate all over and it was fun to skate through the snow drifts. Can you see the Island on our lake in the background? |
 |
| Joe did a ton of Chloe pulling. That kid is amazing and super strong. |
 |
| Doug on the ice. Our new house is in the background. |
 |
| Chloe and I at the Island, yes, you could just walk on out to it, super cool. We loved playing on the rope swing. |
