The day started by Grandma & Grandpa coming to pick up Declan to take him for breakfast at his favourite spot, Cora's. He hung out at their house for a bit and then came home for nap time. After nap, Grandpa came back over. We bundled up and he took Declan, Scarlet & I to the pond to skate. Grandpa put on his skates and Declan's bob skates while Scarlet & I watched from the sideline. Declan thinks once he gets his skates on that he can skate like the hockey players so after falling on his arse several times, his spirit was broken a bit. Grandpa tried really hard but it just wasn't working. Luckily I managed to snap a few shots while he was having fun! Later we all (including Adam) went to my parents house for a nice dinner..........anything is wonderful when you don't have to cook it yourself! My mom always has something for dessert which is a nice treat ;)
I just had to go and google bob skates. I so wish I had known about them at the beginning of winter. Did you get them somewhere local?
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you got a night off! And dessert :P
Katherine - You can get them at Canadian Tire
ReplyDeleteHannah has a pair of just regular skates that a friend gave us. We have yet to go out but I really want to. I love ice skating and theres an ice rink at the school right by us. I was going to say that's what we'd be doing this weekend but I think I'll take the warm sun of the Dominican instead. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're you able to talk Adam into a trip yet?
Ugh, I'm still working on him!
ReplyDeleteWe have regular skates for Declan but he didn't like that he couldn't get up and go. He wants so badly to be just like the hockey players on TV
