More ICE!

This morning we decided to take the boys ice skating.  Cole was super excited and a bit let down afterward, I believe.  Reid only made it around the ice once.  He had a pretty difficult time, as expected, and cried as soon as we started.  Cole fell A LOT, but went around the rink a few times.  He kept watching the other other kids skate and saying, “Let’s go away from the wall where it’s easy.”  He seemed to  think that since the other children we skating so well that it must have been easier out there.

Grinch ICE!

Brien’s work party this year was at the National Harbor.  We had dinner and then got to see Grinch ICE!  It was very cold (9 degrees!) but we bundled up in the enormous blue parkas they gave us and we survived.  Cole had a blast.  Reid stayed home with Grammy.  It was a bit too late for him.

A little late…again!

 

Merry Christmas!  I actually have a valid excuse this time.  We left the camera at my grandparents and haven’t been able to upload the pictures.  But, here they are!

We also visited GiGi and Great Grandmother and Pop-Pop’s house on Christmas, but don’t have any pictures.  It was a very long day for the boys, but they held up pretty well!
