Out on the ice

It's not often that you can take the kids out on clear smooth ice.  It hasn't snowed in a long time so the ice is nice and clear these days.  The kids just love spending time out there.  We've been out twice recently.






Layla and I take turns pulling the two younger kids, and then I somehow manage to pull all four of them on the sled.  


The ice looks about 5 inches thick.


We crossed the lake on the side that was a bit closer.


Lots of people were out on the lake enjoying the nice day.  This guy was out fishing and the kids were enthralled when he pulled one out.
