Ice Skating

Aaron and Kaori found a Groupon for ice skating lessons that included open skate ice time. The skate rental was included for the kids taking the lessons and cheap for those of us along for the ride. So I was able to join the kids in ice skating a few times. Annmarie even signed up for the lessons. She enjoyed the ice skating during open skate but refused to participate in the lessons. Every time she would dissolve into tears even though just ten minutes prior to the lessons she would happily skating out on the ice. Jonah enjoyed the skating but wasn't signed up for the lessons.  If we do it again, I'd probably sign him up instead.  That was a bad judgment call on my part.  And the kids did the lessons with Aaron's kids.  Eliza invited her friend Anna to skate once as well.
