Classic Skating

 Hunter wanted to go skating for his birthday, but with an emergency visit to the doctor for McKay and his ear infections, it didn't work out.  It turned out good however as Josh found some seriously good coupons for hours and hours of fun, which we didn't have the day of Hunter's birthday as it was a school night.  The Saturday after Hunter's birthday we headed with our arms loaded full of roller blades and helmets to Classic Skating.  I haven't been skating at a rink since back in the day at the 49th Street Galleria (oh good memories).  Josh insisted I bring my ancient rollerblades (from the days at USU...yep old) and skate with the boys.  We tried skating once when the boys were little and it was a bit of a fiasco, but since they all own rollerblades now, they did a great job! 

 They were zipping around the rink so fast I usually couldn't keep up with them. 

 McKay and I nearly wrecked a billion times as we almost got railroaded by kids on scooters.  McKay was in heaven though, and  would cry any time I would go out of the rink. I kept waiting for them to play a slow song and Josh to come and ask me to skate with him...(I always loved that when I was a tween :)  They never did though.  So disappointed!

 Doing the hokey pokey. 

 We had pizza for lunch, which the kids grudgingly came off the rink floor for (who is sad about pizza?  These boys really love skating). 

 They hurried and wolfed down their pizza and were headed back.

 We did some of the arcade games and thought McKay would just loved this dinosaur ride...he didn't.

 Hunter liked the rides though.  We tried to show McKay how fun it was, it never worked.  He wouldn't go near any of them.  The older boys thought they were quite fun however.

 McKay was a hilarious skee ball player.  He would overhand throw all of the balls.

 See what I mean?  The kid throws EVERYTHING!

 After that we headed over to the Pirate's Cove, bounce houses and laser tag.

 I didn't get too many pictures of the boys.  They are just too fast for me!

I pretty much followed this boys everywhere.  He had a lot of fun and it was fun to see him doing these things for the first time.  It was a great day!
