ice skating!

I love ice skating you guys!! i've done it twice before YEARS ago with my best friend bonnie. but today, i went to watch my little bro benjamin. it was his first time. he told me it feels just like skating. i disagree.

He started off using one of those walker-pole thingies.



Then he promoted himself to 'the wall'.


Mom and i watched.
Well until she had to make phone calls. then it was just me. i should've gone ice skating too, but i wanted mom to go with me. i got mad at myself afterwards for not just doing it. but i always secretly wanted to go ice skating as a date night one day. maybe i will.

At the end, benjamin got an owie on his foot. bad skate.



Didja find it? sorry you got your foot all beat up. here. have my pink stripey socks. better? don't worry, i don't need them as much as you do.


This is me and the battered boy. i made him stop and take a picture with me.


He got really fast at the end. that's ma'boy.


I did catch a pretty hilarious clip of him falling though (on my awesome camera). it'll take too long to upload or else i mightve. poor guy, i'n lieu of the christmas spirit of kindness and good will, i'll spare him the embarrassment this one time. plus he got his patriarchal blessing two days ago. i'm so excited about it for him! come to find out, he's a lot more like me than i gave him credit for. so, no embarrassment THIS time. muahaha.

But seriously, i love ice skating. it's so fun. glad he finally filled this void in his life. even though he never missed it. but i did for him and now it's complete. maybe i should start a bucketlist of things to do to/for other people.
