Thin Ice

Last day of 2013! While the day is not yet over, it has been a day of new experiences for everyone in the family. The kids got to run on the frozen lake and Codi requested that we build a fire on the lake. Bud and I got started, and it requires the use of a fire starter an a 20 year old flare. 

In addition we were able to use the snow shovel as a makeshift sled on the ice. Eric Jr. loved it! Anika had fun too but she ran out of gas early. All in all good times. 

Hot chocolate was waiting for us when we came back in courtesy of Holly and Anika.
