Since Charlotte didn't have a birthday party this year, she chose a friend to take ice skating.
This is Sydney, one of her brand new friends from kindergarten.
Doing some arts & crafts together
Someone else wanted to come along.
Getting icecream together
And off to the rink! Sydney had never been skating before and Charlotte is certainly not proficient, so these girls stuck to the sides. I've never seen two girls have so much fun falling and pulling themselves along though! Sydney couldn't believe how slippery the ice was! In 45 minutes, they got around the rink about 5 times...but didn't want to stop, bruises and all.
I was just happy when Sydney had progressed enough to hold on to the side and move all by herself! My back and arm muscles were aching from holding her up on skates! Doesn't say much for my strength, does it? I seem to remember friends of ours in Utah having to hold Berkley up, likewise, her first time...
I think it was a fun and special night for these two. Painful, but fun.
