c took them to the one earlier in the school year and i couldn't join because of a work event.
with auntie jen moving to texas in just a few days, i knew this would be our last
time to skate together for a while so we invited her to join us and she said YES.
she braved skating in a rink full of elementary kids falling left and right.
i rented the 'skate mate' for scout, but after just 15 minutes with it, he opted to put it
aside and skate on his own. he is improving and still has one speed - fast.
{i'm trying to work with him on skating slower and smoother but he wants
nothing to do with that}.
i managed to capture just a few videos on my phone.
forgive the shakiness or blurriness.
i was dodging little people the entire time.
here's my big 1st grader rockin' in his retro skates.

| auntie jen, finn {10} and scout {6} |
on the drive home, finn shared that he is much more stable on
skates than he used to be, and scout shared that he made it around the
rink 6x without falling, 4 more than he did the last time he went with dad.
now that's progress!
we are already looking forward to our next skate night.
{i don't think i'll ever outgrow my love of rollerskating!}
