Girls nights and ice skating

Daddy had to work a couple of nights this week so those evenings were just for the girls. We kept it simple for the most part. Samantha had math homework to complete and I had fun helping her with it. It was another moment where I couldn't believe what my life has become. I never expected to become a wife and mother and I'm grateful for every moment I get to be a wife to my husband and mother to my fabulous girls!


On Tuesday Grammy accompanied us on an adventure - ice skating. I haven't been on skates for a long time, but I managed not to fall. Sofie enjoyed skating with her boots and loved it. Samantha was very excited to use her new skates and did very well! She did fall a couple of times, but got back up and kept going. Her "adventure" (the arm pain she got from one of her falls) was still hurting a bit the next day, but I am proud of my tough kid who was brave enough to keep skating. Grammy tried my skates and didn't fall once! We all laughed about how silly we must look. It was a great time and definitely an example of having fun no matter what! Similar to "dancing like no one is watching", except with ice skates and a sled.







I hope our family never loses our sense of adventure... life is the series of the memories we make and I think this qualifies as one I would like to keep!
