Backyard Winter Fun!

How do you spend your winter? My husband Rick and I participated in some winter craziness!

Friends gathered to compete in a backyard tournament: the red and blue teams compete by throwing frozen jugs of coloured water at an orange ball on the ice (see picture).

The team with the most number of jugs nearest to the ball scores points. Think Bocce Ball on ice... sort of.

To add to the challenge, the ball moves around the ice as we play, so the game is constantly changing! Trust me, it looks easier than it is!

We also got Screeched in, which is a famous Newfoundland ritual... read a saying, drink a shot of "Screech" (a type of rum common in Newfoundland) and kiss a Cod! It was a hilarious day spent with great friends. 

Here I am (in pink) in a selfie with friends. My hubby Rick is in the motorcycle helmet at the front right taking the picture.

How do you make your winter fun?
