At the Skating Rink

Last year, Rachel and I went ice skating at the St. Regis Hotel. We had a wonderful time and I planned to take her again this Christmas. I waited too long to make reservations, so I decided to take the entire family to Lake Lanier for skating. It was the first time at the ice skate rink for Rebecca and Raphael.

                            Rachel did a good job at skating. I think she only fell a couple of times.

The rink had "skate mates" for beginner skaters to hold onto for balance and helping with skating. Rebecca didn't quite understand, so most of the time I skated with her pushing us both along.

                                                       

It was a fun afternoon and we all had fun. Rachel and Rebecca already asked me if we can go skating again next year.

                And then a few days later, I took Rachel, Rebecca and a friend to go roller skating.

                                                                Rachel and Sydney.

          I did the same thing for roller skating with Rebecca- a skate mate and I pushed her along.

Love those little skates :)

We had to sit and watch a few times while the older skaters played games in the middle of the rink.

 

Fun times!
