Skateland

What's a better way to kick off the new year than with a couple trips to Skateland?! I can think of a few, actually. But since it had been a good decade since our last trip out to the skate-rink, we thought we'd introduce it to the kids. And we had fun.

Luke loved using his new Christmas roller-blades and, after a few times around on the carpet area, Ashley announced that she had a new favorite sport! Jake put up with the wheels and did his best to get around using the walker, but he opted not to get skates on our second visit, the next weekend. Not his thing right now. Claire was completely feeling it now that she can walk on her own. She cruised around the place (on shoes)and thought the loud music and disco ball lights were fantasic! Tyler dressed for the occasion in his bright red and blue and broke the place down, racing Luke and playing the dice game, where everyone rushes to get under a number 1-6 when the music stops and hopes the DJ doesn't roll their number on the big furry dice or they're out. It was all very entertaining to watch from my perch at the wall.

Fun times.
