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.
