Learning to Skate

My mom has her mind set on me having a skating party for my 5th Birthday. (we won't mention that my birthday is more than  9 months away or that I'm old enough to decide what kind of party I want).

All that aside, she is ensuring that I'll know how to skate for my party.
That said, we got some good practice in today. As you know, my prior practice has only been around the house and the block a few times, but today was the real deal! We went to an actual skating rink.


Here's a blow by blow of the day:
     1. I sat and observed for awhile. 
     2. We used the "walker" (I "think" that thing contributed to my falling). 
     3. My Daddy gave me a good pep talk.
     4. We hit the rink!

 

After going around a few times with Daddy, I was ready to venture out and take a few steps on my own...

Each step helped build my courage. So much so, that I felt the need to bust a move....... clearly I'm not quite there yet! LOL!!!  I had a blast, and must admit, I made good progress for a first timer.

(be sure and watch til the end. You don't want to miss my dance moves)

Frozen On Ice

It's officially Spring, but there's still ice in Texas . . .Frozen on Ice that is!!

My super cool, totally fabulous Uncle Reuben and Aunt Amy took me and her sister Victoria, to see Frozen on Ice . ..CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!?!?

Here's the deal . . ....I had NO IDEA I was going to see Frozen.  I was perfectly content hanging out with them.

 

Then we pack up to go someplace. I didn't care where, just happy to be hanging with them. (in case you're wondering why, they're Awesome).

Then my Uncle brought it down to my level, looked me in the eye and told me we were going to see Frozen on Ice. . . .I was giddy. They're so awesome they recorded The Big Reveal for my Mom and Dad. Now, I'm sharing with you  . . .enjoy!!

ps  - Grandma Sandra, the Elsa dress you sent me totally came in handy!!!
Hmmm, makes me wonder if you knew about this too????
