Cousin Madison, Skating and Bowling

I bet you can't guess who this adorable little lady is.... This was my first time skating. I thought I was 4 but looking at the back of the picture I was just 3. Look at that hair....now we know my children's reluctant hair growth is not my fault ;-) Here is Miss Elliott her first time on skates. She did pretty well over all. She liked skating on the carpet much better than the rink. She is dying to go back.

E and MadisonI had a great time skating. I haven't been on any in 20 years. I am so old to be able to say I haven't done something in 20 years....but it is true! We even went to the rink in Plano that I used to go to on Friday nights in elementary school. Let me tell you, they have not changed a thing....even the skates I'm pretty sure.We went bowling too because some whiny girls were ready to leave the skating rink after an hour and we had Berkley with my parents so we took advantage of our free afternoon. Madison bowled better than I did. I think I should have had bumpers too!E was so cute bowling. She only made it about 4 frames before being tired out. Her little ball took about a full minute to make it down the lane each time. It was adorable.The long waitWe even got some snow that afternoon and the girls were thrilled to go outside and play for a little bit.
