Wish us Luck!


The last few years, we had a rink right
off our back deck. The rink is set to go
but in a different spot this year. And I
am not sure it will happen. We came
home from Disney to snow and since
then, it's been too cold to get the final
pieces in place. We'll see what happens
over the next few weeks. Wish us luck!

Christened Rink.





We "christened" the rink today with our neighbors,
our little cohort! After months of planning, many
false starts with a leak, then super warm weather,
we finally poured the water last Friday, just as the
deep freeze started. We now have perfect ice! So
worth the long wait. Earlier today, we went in to
town to help the girls find new skates and we ran
in to the best neighbors who live just down the lane.
They were buying skates too! And the plan was on
to come down to skate with us this afternoon. You
can see A with his little son R in the picture behind
us as the girls were getting fitted for their skates. As
cold as it's been, it was lovely today and we were
outside for a solid two hours before we finally got
a bit cold. I love the store had a set of lush green
theatre chairs for seating. How perfect is this, for
a theatre family, turned ice skaters today? It was
such a great day of skating. Many more to come!

Do you have a rink in your yard?

The Beginning of our Rink!

With a 5 year old hockey star in the
family, it was time to make our first
backyard rink. This will likely take
several weeks before its ready. 


But "construction" is now underway.
We have amazing weather right now.
And helpful neighbors. Soon, once it's set 
up and iced, we'll skate under the stars!

Have you ever had a backyard rink?
