Ice Skating!






- Let's go
ice-skating!
says Alex.






Our little cousins
are from San Diego.

They've probably
never seen ice before!







Our little pond
looks frozen...





...but we'll
feel safer
at The Forum
in Fishers.





Grab
your
skates!







We're
ready to go...






Alex
isn't too
stable.






- We're not
too sure
about this....






Isabella
takes off...

She's taken lessons!






Calvin's
not afraid
of anything!






- What have I
gotten into?





- I'll help you, Alex...






- Mom!

When did you
learn to ice skate?!





It's amazing
what our kids
don't know about us.



And it's amazing
to watch the skaters
around us...

















Some
seem unsure
of themselves....







Others
look
born to skate...






Some
dress
like real skaters...






While others
dress
rather silly.






Al
is getting
the hang of it....






...while Calvin
is on a mission!






Nicky,
sitting
on the sidelines...




...has offered
Calvin
candy
if he completes
ten laps.








....and
he's off!






Look
at him go!







- What lap
is this,
Calvin?





Al
is gaining
confidence...





I'm experiencing
the view
from my fall
on the ice...






...and
Calvin
is on
lap 9!






We
made
it!







Time
for
hot chocolate...


...a chance
to relax...






...and
that danged
candy!






Time
to go home...







Gotta check
on KC and Norma.







They've been shopping
for KC's
off-to-Egypt clothes.















It's time
to say
good-bye
to the cousins...




Tomorrow
they return
to San Diego...













and tomorrow
we take off...








....for
Florida!
