Skateland

Yesterday we went to Skateland to celebrate Callie's Birthday.  I knew that Carter would really enjoy it, but I wasn't sure about Mila and Leah.  

When I came back with their skates they were really excited to put them on and go.  They quickly realized that it LOOKED a lot easier than it was!

This is Mila after I took her ONE time around the rink...


She couldn't get those skates off fast enough!

Leah had a melt down too.

They had these supports that the kids could hang on to while they skated to help keep them up.  I guess they were really fun until you had skates on your feet.


She couldn't understand why she couldn't do it like everyone else, and didn't even want to try once she knew she couldn't.

Carter, on-the-other-hand, had a BLAST!

He had to exchange his skates for roller blades, because skates just weren't cool.

Here's Cody and Carter having a discussion about their roller blades.


Carter skated the whole time that we were there and was showing off to anybody that would watch him.




The girls just enjoyed playing.

He really is pretty talented with almost anything that he tries.  

Hopefully we didn't scar the girls for life, and they'll try it again when they're older...

It was fun! My kids are already asking when we can go again. We will have to take them during the summer when it's too hot to play outside.
