When we moved over here one of the things I really wanted have a go at was curling. Most of the local villages have a curling club but it's taken very seriously so I daren't turn up and make a fool of myself. Each year when the Harvey Lions News comes to the mail box saying the club is open again I vow I will pay them a visit but as yet I haven't. You can imagine my delight when one of David's coworkers ran a charity event where you could enter a curling team for an evening of curling for fun where no-one is professional. David and I both entered in different teams. It is certainly harder than it looks and very skillful but lots of fun. Maybe next year I'll turn up at the local club.

The kids have been desperate to try more extreme sports so when Harriet got the chance to go skiing with her 4H group she jumped at the opportunity and really enjoyed it. The boys went during March break with the student lifegroup but opted for snow boarding instead of skiing. All came back and laid on the sofa for the rest of the evening!!!
Harriet and I had our birthdays last month and celebrated with a couple of meals out.
Harriet has been part of 4H for about years now and part of the requirements of the club is doing a timed speech on a subject of her choice. She spoke on school uniforms this year and won in her age group and category this means she moves onto regional speaking next week.
David has just got back from 10 days in Indianapolis with work. He hired a car and drove to see David and Sarah for the weekend.
We're all home today as a blizzard is raging outside predicted to give us around 25cm more of snow. This week we've actually seen our first positive temperatures of the year and even had some melting so this is a real set back! Ah well we may see signs of spring by July!!!!
