Today is Heikinpaiva (A finnish celebration that marks mid winter) ...and in attempt to embrace all that is Finnish and youper...we joined in the mornings activities....as you view the following photos, please keep in mind that the temp was 2 with a windchill of -11! Even more, keep in mind that Chris Martin is walking in a parade!I have finally seen it all...maybe not all...but more than I want to! 
This the beginning of the children from Addy's school in the parade
Isabelle refused to ride in the sled...needless to say her walking held up the parade
Addy thought this would be fun...until they took out the "ridiculous" hats!
What a trooper Chris is...
We had to move her along...oh, was she Happy...please no questions/comments regarding the facial hair...it happens every year...it is a hockey thing...enough said!
HAPPY WINTER TO YOU ALL!
