Give Thanks ~ Day 26

We went on a family outing to the ice rink today...

Melissa and I spent quite a bit of the time working on our backwards skating skills. After mastering it, I decided to try and smooth out my transition of forwards to backwards skating. It was while trying this that I took the biggest fall of the day... Yeah, let's just say, I'll have some bruises tomorrow :/

But, fall or not, it was a great afternoon activity! I love the feeling of 'flying' around the ice -- forgetting all the school and work at home and just enjoying some free time =)
