Ice skating

Of course the girls have been begging us to go ice skating again this year. Luckily we have Aunt Heather here who has lots of experience and lessons in ice skating. The girls were in heaven and did not want to leave when it was over.


Excited grins before we started ice skating.

Miriam loves her Aunt Heather.

Lyssa and Rebekah tentatively starting for their first lap around the rink.

Check out her face. She is so incredibly happy. By the end she was saying, "I can ice skate all by self now." I love how these things build such great self confidence.


So this was one of the most brilliant things I have ever seen. The ice skating rink had these little walkers. The kids used them to gain confidence before trying it on their own. They were like Magic and saved us from trying to stabilize wiggly little girls.
