Roller skatin' and a good luck wish.

Two weeks ago, Amy (AmySchmamey) and decided to go roller skating one Wednesday night. I honestly haven't been on skates (ice skates, but they're similar) since before I was pregnant, and Amy hadn't been on skates since before she was pregnant either, so we made a plan to SKATE! Our husbands watched our kids (and played Xbox, am I right?) so we could have ourselves a girls night.



I forgot how much I loved roller skating when I was in middle and high school. I pretty much lived at the rink. When I was in elementary school, I wore roller blades all around the house. And in preschool, I had those red, yellow and blue Fisher Price skates that buckled onto your high tops and I would clank and stomp all over the driveway in them. The joys of being an 80s kid. :)



Also, Amy and I both wore our Chuck Taylors without planning it. TWINSIES! Haha.




We decided to give it another go last week, except we went to the good rink this time, and Liz came with us! It was lots of fun, although the place was crowded, and now I'm officially re-hooked on roller skating. I can't wait to go roller skating again with these two.

And now that I've been re-initiated into the skating world, I really need to get back on the ice. If you didn't know, two years ago this January I took a basic figure skating class at my local ice skating rink and am a Level 3 skater. I really miss it.




What about you? Do you roller skate or ice skate?



Oh, and speaking of Amyschmamey...

She's going back to school, and tonight is her first class. I know she is freaking out about starting classes! (I would be too!) Be a dear and go wish her good luck, will you?
