When Texas Kids Ice Skate

November 25, 2011

The three younger kids and I spent a day in Kansas City while Vance and Caelan froze their booties off in a tree stand. We met up with some good friends and took the kids ice skating.
Texas kids ( with no access to a skating rink) are pretty amusing to watch on the ice. Somehow I ended up being the only experienced ice skater ( it had been about 10 years) on the ice with 6 non skating kids. Yes, we made quite a scene.

The kids did better than I expected and no one was hurt. I say it was a win!
Trying to get a picture of all the kids together was another story.

Owen is going down...

Sarah Cate opted out of trying to pose for a picture.

See ya, Caleb...

I took a two minute video that is a pretty good representation of what our crew looked like the ENTIRE time we were on the ice. Unfortunately none of the kids were able to stay on their feet long enough to document my triple lutz and one-footed axel. ;)
