We discovered this year that a huge perk to New Year's Day falling on a Sunday is the bonus day off to observe the holiday on Monday. A whole extra day with Ryan before heading into tax season? Yes please! We took advantage of the time by introducing our girls to ice skating at the Breslow Ice Hockey Center. Kylie has been asking to go skating for quite awhile now so she was super excited to give it a try.
Lexie was only content to sit and watch for a little bit. She wanted to skate so badly. Daddy obliged and took her for a couple laps around the rink.
The rest of his time was spent alternating between the girls.

| We want to skate too! |
Lexie's expression every time she wasn't getting to "I skate!" If they had skates small enough for her I have no doubt she would have been out there in a heartbeat.

| Those teeny tiny skates really are the cutest things! |

When the girls (and Ryan) had enough they headed off to get popcorn and warm up, and it was finally my turn on the ice. It took a bit to get comfortable again, but soon I was enjoying it just like I did skating on local frozen ponds growing up. I have such great memories of ice skating with my parents & siblings and look forward to making memories with my own family.
