Last Saturday I took Kristen, Heidi and Ryan and met up with my MIL at the ice skating rink. She was taking one of the guys she works with skating and we decided to go too. It was Heidi & Ryan's first time, and I probably hadn't skated since I was about 10. I was nervous to get out on the ice. Luckily I was mostly going slowly holding on to one of the kids. Barbara took Heidi out there and showed her how to hold onto her knees to keep from falling backwards. Heidi did really well and only fell really hard once. She would get right back up and try again. By the end she was almost skating by herself. We put the skates on Ryan towards the end and took turns pulling him along. He didn't want to come off the ice! Heidi sat on the side a little bit while Ryan was using her skates until we got another pair. She took some pretty decent pictures. The top one of me with Barbara in the background is courtesy of Heidi. We were glad to put our pants and sweatshirts on and get out of the heat in the ice cold rink! We leave next week to go see Kevin again so I probably won't post again until I have pictures from that.
