Yesterday, the big arena in town celebrate their one year anniversary with free ice skating, concessions, and parking with face painting, music...the works. Some of our friends were going down there and asked if we wanted to go with them. As we pulled in the parking lot, we feared the worst when the line was out the door and headed down the sidewalk. On further investigation, it was a 2 hour wait to get on the ice and it was only open for another 1 1/2 hours. Hmmm....with disappointed kiddos, we took them all for pizza which made them forget rather quickly. With the kids out of school today for Martin Luther King Day, we made up for it and headed to the Wichita Ice Center, which has open skate almost daily. The kids loved it! Tate caught on fast and after a few times around, he finally let go of the wall and did great! Maren, on the other hand, clung onto me or the wall the whole time, but thought is was all very funny so I guess that's progress. Being from TX and not too many chances to ice skate, my little southerners did very well. Practice makes perfect... we'll definitely be back!
