Learning how to skate!

We went to a skating birthday party for one of Alexis's school friends. Alexis had never been skating before. She has a pair of skates that she can slip over her tennis shoe and she plays with them on the sidewalk, but this is the first time in real skates. She did really good. At first she spent more time on her bottom, but she never gave up and by the time we left she was skating around the place without falling. I was very impressed that she picked it up that fast. Ashlyn got to try the skates too. She loved them. Daddy walked around with her the entire time and she wanted him to let her go so she could do it by herself, but Daddy didn't want to see her get hurt so he held on to her.
