Backyard Rink


My wife taking pictures of me, the funny thing is that this day was a windy day so you don't get to see the struggle of putting a 20X30 ft liner down on a windy day Thanks Honey for not taking pictures of that.

















A couple weeks ago I started to build an Ice skating rink in our back yard. This Idea came up because as a child my Dad use to make rinks for us to skate on and I thought since Taylor is taking skating lessons and Jordyn wants to learn how to skate but can't go to any public skate.

I wanted it to bring it home for the kids, like I had it.

Today Taylor put her skates on and was the first to glide on the smoothes sheet of Ice ever, maybe because I ordered the liner from Canada(Thanks Uncle Jeff for the tip), Have you ever skated on Canadian Ice, If not come on over and enjoy it. I also have a fire pit to keep the onlookers warm too :)

Jordyn I need you to hurry home because I want to put you on some skates on you and teach you how to skate like I promissed.

Miracle before Christmas


As people are finding out about Jordyn heading down to St Judes Hospital, We as a family were up celebrating Christmas before Christmas. Tracey and I were asked by Jordyn if we could go and talk to Santa knowing that she would not be "Home" for Christmas, to see if he would visit her house tonight. The moment was a priceless moment just because it came from Jordyn a little girl that has been through so much but still seems to be a normal little girl. The look on her face this morning around 6am was priceless, "I knew he would come for me" she said.

We actually got this photo right before we had to leave for Boston to Logan airport.
Happy Holidays from us to you
