Ice Skating Fun!

Jace
On New year's day, we went to Ashland to go ice skating with the some friends. We stopped and saw daddy at his new fire station on our way there. We had fun ringing the bell on the fire engine the most! I remembered pretty quickly how to ice skate and only fell a few times. I only used the ice walkers to push Aven and Bella, but I loved it. I was excited to go back to school and then the next weekend Grace and Auntie Leanne came to visit! We went to the home depot workshop and made calendars and then went back to the ice skating rink in Ashland after nap! They bought us new Lego sets and snurf boards to ride on the snow! We went over to the Rogers house after school one day to play with our friends and have dinner. We had lots of fun! Bampa and Lala got the flu and are very sick, so Bella and I went to papa and grandma's for the weekend while daddy and mama went to see if they could help them with some chores until they feel better. Papa was hunting and got a bull elk, so we went up on the mt to help carry it out. It was a fun adventure! We all smeared blood on our faces and I carried aunt Lori's sweatshirt and a leg out. Then back at camp we played in the mud and were a mess! Grandma had us change before we got in the car and we slept they entire way back to her house.

I had fun ice skating too, I used the ice walkers to help me stay on my feet. I liked skating super fast to try to catch Jace! I shared one of the pushers with my buddy Aven. My swim class was cancelled, so I took private lessons this month. I have my swim teacher all to myself and I love it! I was excited to see Grace and auntie Leanne, Grace even played with my babies with me. I had fun ice skating with them too. They got me a Lego set with a horse and house with a stall:) mama took me to open gym with Maddox and miss Tami. I jumped on the trampoline, walked on the balance beam and jumped in the foam pit! Then I went home with miss Tami for lunch and nap while mama helped out in Jace's class at school. I was sad that I didn't get to see bampa and lala with daddy and mama, I hope they feel better. I had fun at grandma's and helping with papa's elk. I spent another day with grandma while mama worked, and we went for coffee with uncle. He let me have some caramel that was left in his cup, it was delicious!
