Skating Into the New Year

For more proof of how amazingly awesome my hubby is, instead of spending New Years Day on the couch watching football all day (which I know he wanted to do) he went to the skating rink with me and the boys.

Santa Claus brought the boys roller skates for Christmas and Wesley has been obsessed with them. As soon as Wesley wakes up in the morning he gets dressed, puts his skates on and goes into the basement to practice. He turns on his CD player and spends hours down there skating around in a little space that we cleaned out.

It looks like all his practice has paid off though because he did great at the skating rink yesterday!

Ryan is doing much better on his skates too, but unlike his brother, Ryan does not keep them on nearly every waking hour.

Hard to believe this is the same Wesley who swore he was "never skating again" after he went for the first time!
