Adventure Group!
I had originally planned for us to ice skate together in December but the water pump broke so we ended up going last week. I believe last I counted we had about 50 people - homeschooled kids.
It was so much fun.
Our regular adventure group is smaller but we added in more to rent out the rink for two hours. I loved every minute of it. Nephi and Levi were complete naturals on the ice and ended up having wrestling matches with the other kids. Clairana (who sprained her ankle and has been on crutches for two weeks) got out on the ice and did great - she will go back with the youth at church at the end of the month so she was happy just taking it easy.
Coraline and Bella both socialized the whole time and Bella got out in the middle but Coraline mostly hung onto the side and slowly went around with friends.
SO FUN.
The kids said I kept saying it all day but we did have a great time.
I loved doing new things and going to new places with them. Plus a huge added bonus that Levi got to sneak away and go with us!
Thanks to Anne for the amazing idea and after many phone calls we pulled it off!
**No phones were allowed on the ice so these are all pictures that others shared with us!
Levi and I were on the ice the whole time - it felt like complete freedom/date to not have Cecily.

Some of us about to leave. We packed the place inside. Lots of children.

It was freezing but so many still endured and made it.

Pictures from Cecily's playdate. Anne offered to have her mother in law (who used to run the nursery at CC - so our family love her) to watch her youngest with Cecily. It was perfect and I am so thankful.
