Just Do the Next Thing

May. 11, 2009 - Rollerskating

There is a rollerskating rink that does Homeschool days one Friday a month during the school year.  We went in March.  Thanks Judy for inviting us.


Sean and I laughed at how much more fun it was rollerskating as an adult verses our junior high days.

No girls wanted to skate with Sean in junior high, but now he did not have enough hands for all the ladies that wanted to skate with him.


The boys were tentative to start, but by the end, they were doing so great.  They only fell about 50 times each.  They have some bruises to prove it, but no broken bones.


I was so proud of the three oldest, although this was their first time skating, they each tried the speed races.  None of them won, but they each tried.  It seems that most of the others there go skating very often.  Now they all want roller blades.  Maybe one day soon, we will check Play It Again Sports.

Skating is hard hard work.  We were able to bring the stroller onto the skate floor, that was awesome.



After the races.

Even Miss Olivia got a ride from Daddy



Really it was so fun to go rollerskating.  I was surprised how once you learn, you never forget.  It was great exercise.  The music was fun.  The people were kind and gracious.  The kids were well behaved.  The food was the same.  The smell brought back memories of childhood, but this time was so much sweeter.
