Ice Cold Weather perfect for Ice Cold Skating!

Today was a school holiday so the kids stayed up a bit longer last night and slept in until 10:30 am.  I got them up then because we planned to go ice skating at Iceland today.

I told Marissa and Robert to invite a friend.  Robert invited Aaron, but he didn't want to go; Marissa invited Makenzie.  We waited until 12:00 for her to arrive - then headed off for the ice rink.

Makenzie was so funny - she forgot to bring socks and gloves.  Robert was wearing two pair of socks so he gave her one of his pair, and I had brought two pair of gloves for each of us, so we were covered for gloves as well. 

We skated from 12:20 - 2:00 - what a great time.  Robert was brave and daring.  Marissa and Makenzie were cautious and careful.  Robert had several spills but then we found out that he had broken skates.  Once I replaced his skates he did GREAT!  Marissa and Makenzie didn't fall once (but had several close calls ;)).  I really love ice skating.  It's something you don't forget. 

After a great time at the ice rink I took the kids to Qdoba for lunch.  YUM!  Chiops & Queso and Quesadillas.  It was a really nice way to spend the day.
