You heard that right! Way down south in North Carolina, we're on ice!
(OK, synthetic, but they are real skates...)
It's interesting what a simple detour through a shopping center will surprise you with. This particular a.m. I found a giant "skating rink" and after making a quick call, a few of us would meet in the afternoon and see how the kids liked it.
Liked it? I meant loved it. They were bound and determined...
...to stay on TWO feet.
After a couple of slips...
..and a couple more falls...
...they were zipping along like they'd been doing this for years!
We wrapped it up with some hot cocoa and cookies, a consolation prize for the littlest that just learned to walk...
...and drove home with the sun setting on our backs...
...with warm bellies, smiles plastered on our faces and the satisfaction of a Monday well played.
