Lacey and I took the kids roller skating at Oaks Park. We have gone once before with Auntie L, but the ration of kid to adult was 2:2. This trip we were out numbered 2:3. On skates, this is a challenge. So, Lace and I opted not to participate on wheels.
Bee and Kade were both very excited to get their skate on. What I failed to connect was we were going because it was her spring break. This meant it was all other preschool spring breaks, too. It was packed with small people. To be honest, it was a little overwhelming. They actually ran out of skates. The kids received the last two pairs of eight skates!
They both did very well. Lace held tight to Kade and I kept a hold of bee as I stolled Ashton along with us. Kade's skates were much looser, so he was rolling at a quicker pace. Towards the end we switched the kids out of skates, so each had a chance to be in the different kinds.
Kade's Romeos didn't fit into the skate, so we made do.
We had a shoe swap and Kade wore Bee's to fit into the skates.
He didn't skate long with his new skates. They were pretty tight and cannot be loosened up. However, he did not want to switch back into his own shoes.
Bee loved the real roller skates. She was out on the rink and wanted to do it her self. She had a fall, but to her credit she got back down and tried again. She could be a Rose City Roller in no time. Gotta love those Derby girls.
There favorite as with all kids was the back portion with the wooden rolling hills. We will be back- the kids can hardly wait. To be honest, either can I!
