Ice Skating and Little Sisters

Today I had a half day of work. I used the time to finished shopping for stocking gifts, and then headed over to my parents for the rest of the day. My dad made a little ice rink in their backyard, so my sister and I decided to try it out. It was pretty tiny for me to practice much skating, but the little rink was the perfect size for my sister to practice stopping and turning. She is such a good little skater already! I showed her a couple of figure skating turns and she caught on first try.

 I wasn't really planning on spending much time outside today, so I wasn't dressed to skate outdoors. My "skating outfit" is a mishmash of my moms winter gear. lol.
