An hour to skate.

For Taylor!
I was so jealous of Taylor when she announced that for lunch time yesterday she was going to spend it eating pizza + skating outside at the rec center.

I asked if I could come to take pictures + she politely said 'that's okay, mom - I got this' Meaning, yeah, don't come + embarrass me with your huge camera taking pictures of me eating pizza + ice skating with 6th graders + 7th graders + heaven forbid the all powerful, all knowing 8th graders!

So I thought about it for a minute {second} noticed it was a beautiful day, grabbed Easton (and the huge camera) + enjoyed it with her.

At first I didn't even make eye contact just walked along with Easton who joyfully threw snowballs + ran his gloves across the ground + I just watched. Then...oh no, she saw me! Then waved + said....HI EASTON!!!

She seemed happy to have us there (the only parent) so out came the camera.
This place is just too amazing to not capture!

Even the signs are adorable.
My next planned weekly activity will be to take up snowshoeing!

I recommend that while skating:
Look to your left for this view...

Then look to your right for this one...

Now breath in that crisp, cool, refreshing air...
awww, that's better!
