The one benefit to all this cold weather is it keeps the pond frozen!!!! Over the holidays we spent many days ice skating. After the snow last Monday we had to get the snow off the pond so we had a lot of work to do :-( We spent most of the day Tuesday sweeping the ice with occasional snowball fights and breaks.
John came out to entertain us for awhile.
Taking a break!
Snowball Fight!!
With the snow swept off we were ready to resume ice skating!!!! As you can tell we got a good size area swept off but NOT the whole pond!!!! By Wednesday afternoon our cousins from Nebraska had arrived and the kids spent all day Thursday and Friday afternoon on the ice.

The pond was even thick enough to bring out the 4-wheelers!!

On Saturday afternoon Dave, Miah, Ben, Jesse and Matt Busenitz came over and joined our group for a game of hockey. With the boys busy playing hockey, Kara and Bethany got to ride the 4-wheelers with their cousin Amanda, but the photographer forgot to take some pictures :-(
