New Year's Eve Fun

We went ice skating today at the Cottonwood Heights Rec Center. It is the first time that we have ever taken our kids ice skating, and I now know why . . . it was quite the project.


Sarah was really hating it as soon as we started lacing up her skates (she said they were "too tight"), but she ended up loving it the most. But, wouldn't you love it too if all you had to do was hold onto hands and get pulled around the ice. Michael and Emma both started off totally dependent on their adult helper, but toward the end they insisted on skating independently. It really went a lot better than I had imagined. But . . . in case anyone else is going to attempt this outing . . . it would really work best with a 2 adult: 1 child ratio. We did have a wonderful time!!!

It was great to have you in town. That looked fun. In a kind of slap stick kind of way.
