A blast from the past.....

As part of making Katie's birthday better this year I promised it would be a week to remember since last year was so messed up. Katie had won a gift certificate from her elementary fund raiser. It was a night of free roller skating. I hid it from her until we were on our way there.

Phil and I had not been on skates in almost 12 years. Then we had Katie who had never been on skates. It was pretty funny. I wish I had someone there to take some photos. Roller skating with Katie was like trying to hang on to a wet noodle while on roller skates. It was hilarious.

I had made arrangements for someone to watch Jack and Maddie so that Katie could have Mommy and Daddy all to herself for about 2 hours. As the night progressed Katie built more confidence and was doing better on the skates. Now if she could just stop taking Mommy of Daddy with her to the floor when she falls.

All in all it was a great way to start off celebrating her birthday. Even though she will be very tired in the morning and maybe a few unaccounted for new bruises. Technically, her birthday isn't officially till Friday. However a little extra fun every now and then never hurt

TTFN~
