I want to wish you all a happy Thanksgiving in the circle of your loved ones.
We ourselves are heading for a dinner at our in-laws later on today, but I wanted to share the freebie that I've promised you yesterday before we go.
I have a quick photo of my DD at her first visit to the ice rink.
It ended up being so much fun that we can't wait to go again. I was expecting for her to get tired of it after 10-15 minutes of me dragging her around and her falling over every 3 seconds, but at our local rink they have these metal bars for the learners to hold on to and it made a huge difference. When I was little we didn't have these, so I had to learn the hard way. But then I was 5 or 6 and couldn't care less. The rink was right in front of my house the whole winter through, so there was no way I wouldn't skate... Anyway, my DD met a friend from school who was already doing a little better and the two of them just took off skating. My DD fell over a few times, but since she was holding onto the bar, she didn't fall hard. And at the end of the session she saw this teenager throwing the bar out of his way and all she said was: That's cool! and did the same. She never realized she actually skated on her own to go and fetch it again. We stayed the whole hour and a half and she was still mad that we had to leave. We'll have to go back every week now, lol.
I do have a photo, but it's really bad, since it was taken with my phone. I didn't want to drag my huge camera on the ice with me...Enough with all the blabbing. Here is the freebie:
It's another Christmas Card made with my newest kit Shades Of Frost. You can get this one at my store Ahhh Scrap!
I am sorry, this freebie has now expired and is available for sale in the store.)
I also wanted to let you know of our sale going on at the store through December. Check it out here:
Don't forget to use the code NovDec2008 when you check out to get 25% off on your purchases of $5 or more.
