Our Saturday continued with Mike taking Matthew ice skating all day while I cleaned the house. They were gone four hours! They went and sharpened both pairs of skates(Mike's parents got ice skates for Matthew for Christmas and Mike for his birthday)
Then they tried a few different outdoor rinks. They had the "best day ever" according to Matthew. So much so that when I suggested we go back last night so I could take some night pictures of them ice skating...they both said yes!!!
It really was quite dark. I was still able to get some great shots of them. I really think I am getting very comfortable behind my lens!
Getting ready to get on the ice.
Mike and Matthew take turns being goalie.
Matthew is actually amazing on ice skates for a kid who has only skated a total of maybe 10 hours in his life.
Bring it on daddy-O!
Mike and I are always...beside ourselves, when Matthew talks about how much he loves winter. Really? No really? Last night we knew for sure that our son really does love winter. He is a winter kid through and through. He had been skating all day and now a good portion of the night and he refused to leave.
Here he is taking a "rest" on the bench because he was so exhausted. He begged us not to leave. Mike promised to take him again Sunday and they skated a few more laps.
Any yes...They got up this morning and did the whole thing over again.
Maybe he is serious when he says he wants to be the next Apolo Ohno?
Hope everyone had a good {as Matthew}weekend.
Found two more that I just love and wanted to post.
