Ice Skating!

 We got to go ice skating over Christmas break! 

 
It was Lou's first time and she did so well!

 
She used the skate helper for a lot of it but she also struck out on her own or with me.

 
The girls had fun skating with each other and their friends.


 
We got to go to the outdoor place this year which is so much more fun and festive than the indoor rink!

 
Lou wanted to skate by herself and she actually made it all the way around with the railing.

 

Peaches had fun with her friend E.

 
They took lots of breaks around the firepits. 

 
Thankfully it wasn't terribly cold.

 
We had a lot of fun but unfortunately it ended abruptly when one of the moms in our group fell and dislocated her shoulder! I felt so bad for her! She was in terrible pain, but the park rangers were able to come put it back in place and one of the other moms is getting her EMT license so she was able to help her as well. Another mom (who's husband had come) drove her car home and I picked up her groceries and delivered them later. Thankfully she recovered well, but it was definitely not a fun experience!

The rest of us got lunch after they left and then the girls and I had to go see the new Lego store they put in at the mall!


 
We didn't buy anything, but we went back a week later with Daddy and everyone got something with their money. 

 
They are excited to have a Lego store nearby! 
 
Hopefully next year's ice skating outing won't be quite as eventful!
