It's go time...

It's another favorite time of the year for the Gunn's.  

and we've added two more skaters to our outings.  And a new location.

Two years to grow has made a big difference for Ella Jane on the ice.  She had a lot of confidence which helped her greatly.

I love watching kiddies get up from ice.  It's like new walkers all over again.  There is a moment in this series of pictures that I ADORE.  The moment where she's just about to take the risk to get up and balance.  To see if she can do it.  She's trusting, nervous and confident.  And oh are there so many life lessons that can be applied to these photos.

I love them.

The big kids were really helpful and kind with Sara.  She's been on the ice before but never by herself.  This was her first year going solo.  I was surprised by how well she took to it.  As Ella Jane described her yesterday..."she's one tough cookie!"

Thankful for winter, for our public ice rinks and kids who love skating.
