Today we went to Winter Family Fun Day at Reflections Lake in Wasilla, Alaska. They had all kinds of winter activities available to try, and whoever organized it provided all the equipment. Ed and Austin tried snowshoeing. All the kids tried ice skating. Logan and Katie tried cross country skiing. I never did get a chance to try anything but we went sledding when we were done at the lake and I had a great time. Logan loves to ice skate and if it wasn't so expensive he would love to play hockey. This is his first time on a frozen lake and it's a lot different then the ice at an indoor arena. He kept complaining that there were too many bumps, but he stayed out there for awhile.
Somebody had made this hole through the snow so Katie had to try to go through it.
Katie tried the cross country skiing. She did pretty good and went the whole mile around the lake. She had tried ice skating earlier but never made it onto the ice. I think the skiing was more her speed.
Austin tried snowshoeing earlier in the day and when he was done he wanted to try skating. By the time I got back going around the lake with Katie he had taken the skates off. This is him sliding around the ice.
How fun. I love ice skating. I haven't done it in years though. Coby is doing a report on Alaska and is obsessed with it. He wants to move to Alaska now...so funny. I will have to show him your blog so he can see Alaska in real life. He will be fasinated.
