Roller Skating 1-14-10

Sorry no pictures. (thank goodness) Alex's school had a fundraiser at the local roller rink. So we went. Alex and I straped on some roller skates. His first time and I haven't skated since.... well High School. I get his skates on and before I get mine on he is on his rear. Well lesson 1. How to get up. Grandpa was there for moral support of mom. So we shuffle off to the rink. going good. Just as we get to an opening I see some mom's from church. They are not skating. Why am I??? Alex does not get 3 feet on the rink and down he goes... oh wait... yes he takes mom with him... I am sure I will be the topic of conversation on Tue for church class. Alex had a great time. We were like turtles out there but he had fun. Only once did he fall and cry. He said he fell so hard he almost pee in his pants. But like always he had a blast seeing lots of people from school. Everyone was saying "Hi Alex" He said he is not very good. he is to slow but I told him I think he did great for his first time. We will have to go again.
