ice skating!

Ever since Audrey's birthday when we went ice skating, both kids have been asking to go again. But I didn't feel comfortable taking all three kids until they have a little bit of experience on the ice. So yesterday they did a one-hour private lesson with Tina (who they both loved!) and before long they were off! We're going to do one more lesson next Wednesday and from then on I think I'll just let them practice and improve on their own. Our local ice-skating rink does a homeschool skating time each Wednesday and both times we've been the kids have met some new friends. I can see this being a fun weekly activity for us! Audrey is already saving so she can buy her own skates!

...although Ethan was not terribly impressed with the cold and being in his stroller...might have to look into other arrangements for him! We'll see...

My kids have been asking to do this - I may need to get some info from you. They look so cute! :)

We'd love to have Ethan come here and play while you take the older kids. He'd probably love spending time with the dogs too!

I've taken many a first time skater here. It's a grat place (and time) to learn. Hopefully we will see you there sometime.
