We decided to take the kids ice skating today. Can you believe our oldest is 11, and we've never been before? Matt and I went a few times when we were first married, and served in young womens and young mens, but haven't been since. 11 years is a long time! I was very nervous about getting out on the ice again, but once I did, it wasn't so bad. I definitely wasn't brave enough to cruise around the rink like I did as a teenager. Matt was way more adventuresome than me today. And the kids did pretty good for their first time.

The boys both spend about half the time on their backs.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this picture of Matt and Morgan. Perfect daddy daughter moment. They are both such dare devils, and took off, skating fast, and very well. It was Morgan's first skate, and she did great!

A few seconds after this shot, Chandler nearly knocked down this poor girl as he scrambled to the wall as he tried to stop himself from falling.

He was killing me with the hood! Every time I tried to get a good shot, all I saw was hoodie.

Gabe trying to "glide" on his skates, verses the tip toe walking running, scrambling thing he had been doing at first.

This was
after, his tip toe running.

He wouldn't admit it, (cause he's 11, and a boy) but he had a really good time skating today. Even if he did fall a lot.

The boys goofing around.

By the end of the day, she was a total rock star on the ice.
