We all went ice skating at the Ice Park in Fredericksburg. We had a blast. It was Rachel's 1st time and she was a pro. She just took off. I love to ice skate. It reminds me of when I was little. We use to do it all winter long on the Sandusky River. Posted by Picasa

Mitchell at his DARE Day celebration. All 5th graders got to spend the day at the park with all the festivites going on. I was a chaparone and was witness to "young boy's" at their best. He had an ARCA Driver sign his shirt and was able to sit in a helicopter, army jeep and have a hand at archery. Oh, I almost forgot, he was able to get the high school baseball players and cheerleaders sign his shirt! Spring 2005 Posted by Picasa
