Skate Night

The PTA at the boys' school were putting on a skate night tonight. For Clifford's birthday, he'd been given a gift card for Cold Stone and had been bugging us to take him. So I figured we'd make it an evening of fun by going out for dessert AND roller skating. Peter and I shared our dessert while the boys each picked out a huge waffle-cone bowl full of ice cream and candy pieces. They managed a few bites each before realizing their eyes were bigger than their bellies. We made a quick stop at home so they could put the leftovers in the freezer before making our way to the skating rink.
 This was the only picture I was able to capture of the both of them before they ditched us to be with their friends
 Peter and I shared a snack to pass the time
 Kristjan lasted about an hour before he had to take his skates off due to a blister. By this time, Peter was more than ready to leave, but I told him they hadn't done "fast skate" yet, which was the whole reason Clifford wanted to come. Sure enough, when Peter went to tell Clifford it was time to go, Clifford wasn't having it! So we stayed long enough for him to race. He came in first place!
