We BARELY got this one checked off the list. I literally woke up on Monday morning and was like, we should do this and I immediately went about trying to find a sitter for Kellen. And someone alerted me to a half off depot coupon so our skating was super cheap! Everything fell together perfectly and so quickly and away we went!
A friend lent us her kid skates to use just in case and we also took our helmets with us.
Any roller skating rink called Sparkles in just awesome, no matter what is inside!
All geared up! I got them regular skates when I got mine, but we decided to start with my friends kids skates first. We did one lap around on the lowest setting, which basically was just like walking. There seriously was no roll. So then we did another lap on the third and final setting. They still really didn’t roll and the boys wanted to roll!
So we put on the regular skates. Immediately fell down and off I went with my $10 to rent the most awesome contraption known to man. PVC pipes on wheels. This thing was AMAZING.
They were zipping around in no time!
And of course this post would not be complete without videos!!!
Around and around we went! They got better as the morning went on. Riley completely surprised me. He usually gets frustrated with things VERY easily and completely gives up, but every time he fell he had a huge grin on his face and pulled himself back up and kept trying. It was unreal and amazing. The place also had some video games of which we got tokens for in our half off depot, so when they were exhausted from the skating, we hit the games and headed home. It was SO MUCH FUN!
