Ice Skating...take 2

Ok...as promised here are pictures from our second round of ice skating. But...consider yourself warned, picture quality is awful. Rest assured we all had a great time (most of us anyway) on the ice. It was cold, dark and the little one was cranky, we swapped out on who was taking pictures, we have red eyes, shadows and babies pulling on arms...you name it and it probably contributed to the picture taking ability!

Good news is, we ran into friends and family while there!

At this rink, they had little walker type things for the little people to skate with, Boog was gettin' after it! The only complaint we had was they only had the double blade skates that buckled over shoes and they were hard to keep on. The place we went before, the double blades were actually boot skates with a double blade, much better, but...



Movin' right along.



Big brother taking little brother for a quick spin. He loved it when we took turns pushing him fast around the rink. Sorry to say (well maybe not sorry) that there are not any pictures of me pushing him around the rink! I do have some of Lemon Drop's friend pushing him but do not have permission (well, actually I just did not ask) to post them.



Big sister and little brother, and yes, I know she is blurry. Refer to top of post! Haha



The older kids skating along, or holding on in Lemon Drop's case...she did a lot of holding on. I do not think she got skates that actually fit right until right before we left.



Silly girl.



Here we go...she is actually skating here. Way to go! Woo hoo!



A shot of the cousins (well, part of them we were missing the 2 little brothers in this picture) they had such a great time skating together.



We really did have a great time and it worked out perfectly that it was actually cold (like really cold) when we went. It made it more of a real experience for the kids. Living in Texas, they do not get many "real winter" experiences.
