Family Night

Back in Early March we had a fun FHE activity. Savvy had been dying to go roller skating, so we obliged!

Ruby, content.


We had the Classic Skate dinner deal-- pizza and a drink or Nachos and a Drink for like 2 bucks or something.  Talk about the dinner of champions.






We had a great time, but it we are not crowd people. We don't like crowds... like at all. We prefer to play during the week and stay home on the weekends because crowds are so un-wonderful.  Of course we picked to go skating on a local elementary school's skate night. Gah!  The place was swarming with children. Sav is used to having the floor pretty much to herself when we've gone skating in the past. This time she was pretty terrified of all the people so we stayed close together and she wasn't the least bit disappointed when we decided we were skated out.

It was pretty awkward being on skates with my newly healed feet, so I quickly changed up my wheel of choice and borrowed Sav's extra scooter and scootered around with her instead.  Kyle looked like a champ pushing Ruby in her stroller on skates.  My favorite was when he brought our dinner on skates. For a moment there I thought I was at a 50s drive in.




We polished off our evening with some Magelby's chocolate cake, thanks to my parents, Jake and Rebecca giving us their BYU game tickets from the previous Saturday's game. (if BYU scores more than 80 points, Magelbys gives you a free slice of cake with your ticket!)  With all that healthy goodness we fed our children for dinner, Savannah rushed to use the ladies room while at Magelby's--- she wasn't sure if she had to use the potty or puke. Bless her heart.  Fortunately the puke-scare was just that. A scare. We rolled the kids back to the car and tucked them in bed, all tuckered out from a fun night with the family.  I hope they remember these times....

Scooters and strollers on the skate floor? Talk about family-friendly!
