Ice Adventures
Out of the blue last week, Ava said she wanted to go ice skating. Seemed like the perfect time, so we found a place to go. Surprisingly, for this being a desert, we had several choices!
We showed up at the rink just in time for an open skate, rented our skates, and got ready to go.
The rink was pretty crowded, but we were able to use some of their toddler walkers to help Ava get a good start.
Eventually, though, the walker ended up being more trouble than it was worth, so we moved on to just holding hands and working along the boards. By the fourth or fifth time around the week, she was really starting to get the hang of it. Whoozers was even starting to let go of everything and just scoot on around.
Ava had a great time skating and was a huge fan of “going fast” when we would push her around the rink. She was totally wiped out afterward, but woke up the next morning asking if we were going again. I think it was a hit!
I think we’re looking at the next olypmic gold medalist
That’s awesome! She did great! And I’m amazed at how crowded your rink was….
Looks like she learned pretty quickly! Fun times!
