It just means that things have been rather quiet. January and February passed by rather quickly which is good since winter tends to drag on. While there were only a few short sightings of snow here this winter (like everywhere in Canada I think) I did find myself getting tired of the cloudy days and actually wishing for some white stuff. There's not much to do on a February afternoon if there isn't any snow. Ashley and I got some skiing in and for a little girl that hasn't been back in ski boots since she was a preschooler, she did great. After a short lesson she was back on the lifts and the two of us managed to get some really good runs in. The boys decided skating would be more up their alley this winter but promise we'll all go often enough next winter.
As for Grant, he has become quite a good little skater and prefers the outdoor ponds to the indoor rinks. In fact, when he learns we're going to an arena, he nearly falls apart. He likes to drag his hockey stick along which I think causes more falls than anything...however, boys will be boys as they say! Well, everyone has managed to keep busy and happy that Spring will soon be upon us.
