The Ice House

So we went to check out the Ice House..

This really cool ice skating rink

here in Abilene that was open

last year, too, we just never made

it. Remington was very excited.

She has seen ice skating several

times on tv and thought it would

be wonderful. Well, we all got a pair

of skates and hit the ice.

Literally, hit the ice. Poor baby

girl more than we did. Then a man says,

"Mam, they have those double bladed things

that buckle onto her shoes that might be better

for her." Well, holy moly man! Did the guy

who gave me the skates for my little never

before ice-skating 4year old not think that

might be good? We got the skates changed

out and it was much better, for Remington.

I told Clint that I had ice skated at the

Galleria in Ft. Worth a few times over my

lifetime. But OH MY GOSH! I DO NOT

remember my feet feeling like they were

giving birth while I was trying not to fall

and bust my kiester! We both had to take

very frequent breaks, like after ONE TIME

around the rink! We ended up feeling a lot

better after a little while and had lots of fun!
