Ice Skating

Neela has been very interested in ice skating lately (ice hockey in particular), so we finally went out and got her a fun pair of ice skates and a cute new helmet. The weather was perfect today for an outing to the local ice pond.


Yup - it is a princess helmet. She is finally warming up to the whole princess thing.



Fancy kneepads too!

Balancing on the ice


She never gave up. We weren't sure how she would take to it...but despite not being able to do more than balance on her own she loved it!


Ashton watched the action nearby


He was itching to get out and try skating too!

Neela and her proud papa



She was unable to do much on her own, but she was eager to try and managed to learn a bit of balancing. We are so proud of her!
