Ice Skating!!

To start off the Christmas break Victory and I went Ice Skating. There was a very enchanting, small, outdoor ice rink in Omaha that looked like it belonged in the North Pole. It was a cold evening but it was worth it. Afterwards we took a walk along a beautifully lit path. As we were walking a horse pulled carriage drove by on the brick road. It was just like the movies! I loved it!

And if you observe that I'm looking a little chunky in the picture it's only becasue I have several layers on top, Victory's under armor (which wasn't terribly too big), t-shirt, a hoody and then my coat and scarf . I also have three layers on the bottom as well, a pair of long johns, sweat pants and then my jeans. I can't quite remember, I may even have three pairs of socks on to. I like to stay warm what can I say? And I did, all except my face. By the time we finished ice skating my face was frozen and I could barely move my mouth to speak.

Don't apologize for the length of it! I could have stopped any time. It really was interesting. I can't believe you'd draw the connection between the two Zekes. It sounds like a stretch... However, you are exactly right. He was the only other Zeke I'd ever heard of, and I didn't know him that well 'cuz he was older, but I just remember that he was a nice kid and I think he might have been kinda cute(?) Anyway, those two things apply to my little guy too. :) He was Sister Carr's nephew, correct?
Anyway, I'd better leave a comment about this entry! I live in Omaha, and don't know where you went skating! Nevertheless, it looks like you found a great place.
