Bridger and Makenna's elementary school had an ice-skating party last night. Terry took the three old kids. This was Hunter's first time to go ice-skating. He did really well and by the end of the session, he was skating pretty without the "walker"--I really have no idea what those are called.
Sawyer and I were supposed to stay home and get some church work done. When the kids were getting their gloves on, Sawyer wanted a pair on. He cried and cried when everyone left and kept coming to me saying, "I skate. I skate." He wanted to be with the rest of the gang. I thought it would be fun to get pictures of Hunter's first time skating, so we headed to the rink. Sawyer was ready to go right out on the ice. Thankfully, I found some other things to keep him occupied. He still wouldn't take those gloves off, though.
We went outside for a walk and found the ice from the Zamboni. Sawyer ran to it screaming, "Build snowman. Build snowman." (Oh, before we found the "snow," Sawyer did some Power Ranger moves on some older teens outside. They got a kick out of him, literally. They loved his rendition of the Batman song as well.)
He picked up some "snow" to throw it and shouted, "Snowball fight." I was quite impressed with his little snow phrases--good memory from his small snow experiences this winter or from the many books we've read.
We went outside later to watch the Zamboni drop another load. Exciting!
