Zamboni Not Included

Monday, December 2 was the night we got to fill up the ice rink.  We were so excited.

It took 4 hours to fill it up.

The next morning we woke up to this…

Perfect timing, right?  The water didn’t start freezing until the next night, though.   

By Friday the rink was solid ice.  Our first night of ice skating was December 6 and man did we have fun!

What a good-looking family.  Well, minus the photographer.

Me…just before my double axel.

As long as the ice is frozen enough we skate every night.  Some nights it’s just me and Mark, which is pretty fun.  Our family has spent more time outside in the last month than we did the last two winters combined.  I highly recommend everyone make their own rink.  Totally worth it.  And if you don’t live where it’s cold enough, just come borrow ours.
