Ice skating ... for the first time in 20+ years

Ever since last winter, Luke has been asking us about going ice skating at our Main St Square and last week he was able to go finally! We were given a lovely gift of some $$ to spend on our family and this is one of the outings we picked to go on. I was a little nervous after I realized that I hadn't been on the ice since my freshman year of college, yikes!

It was a lovely afternoon -- a wind-free day that wasn't too far below freezing AND half price day at the rink! By the end of our time there, Luke was skating without assistance while Mabel enjoyed doing a lap with the pushcart, then a warm up at the fire pit (my kind of girl). It was a really fun and memorable family outing.
