The Adventures of Ice Skating!

Jerry has been wanting to take the kids ice skating for awhile. There are 2 places to ice skate around here. Since today was pretty chilly, we decided to head to the indoor arena! The kids were ELATED when they woke from their naps and realized we were actually going to ice skate!

Here they are bundled up and ready to go! Anniston and Dadoo!

Treyson took a break after 2 laps. All he did was shuffle his feet back and forth, so Mommy's back thanked him for the break!

Look at my big boy skating!!

After about 45 minutes, Anniston gained alot of confidence in herself. I took her to the middle circle and let her skate around on her own. She only fell a few times!

Then she was ready for Dadoo to take her out. Dadoo's back welcomed her skating on her own. Up until this point, he was supporting all of her weight as he tried to balance himself!

I just love how she's looking at her Dadoo in this picture! :)

Treyson and Mommy went into the stands to watch sissy. Dadoo spotted a co-worker and his daughter (who happens to be less than 6 weeks younger than Anniston). Anniston was so excited to make a friend at the ice rink! Do we win "Parents of the Year" award for NOT bringing helmets???

The Dad's kept a really close eye on the girls! ;) It was pretty hilarious. One girl would fall, then the other would fall down because the others' leg moved her foot. Then they'd just giggle, get up, and go again!

We will DEFINITELY be going to ice skate more often! Anniston got really good at it, and Mommy and Dadoo even felt like they moved on the ice pretty well. Considering Treyson doesn't have the coordination for anything like this, he was a great sport at "coasting" between Mommy and Dadoo's legs.

Such a fun family date day!
