Today is Chynna's 8th birthday and she has been begging me to take her skating over the break so Tyler and I took her as her birthday present. She was so excited when we told her the good news this morning.
Brother helping her with her skates.

Group shot! We brought along our cousin Hayley who has never been ice skating! She was a pro :)


Just the girls.


Sibling love <3



Almost fell, but Brother caught her :)




She was the only one to fall out of all of us, but she only fell once!



She finally let go of the wall...haha


Sisterly love <3



We could be twins.



Chynna wanted to take a break because she was hungry so we all bought something from the vending machine. Tyler took the longest to decide but he finally made hte decision to buy sun chips...and what do you know? The bag got stuck. Every little boy that passed the machine saw it as a challenge to try to get the bag out. So funny!


The boy in the black was our hero! Every few minutes he would wander over to shake the machine or try a new technique for getting the bag out. We figured there was no hope so we left. But as soon as we did...


He followed us out on the rink to give Tyler his bag of sun chips! We figured IF he got them out of the machine, he would probably keep them for himself but we were wrong! haha





On our last trip around the rink, Chynna said this was her best birthday ever :)

John 14:1-6

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going."

Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
