"I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates."
-T. J. Miller
It’s a very Texas thing to from freezing to incredible weather in the span of a few weeks. When it happens, we try to take advantage of it. The kids used the change to setup a small skating rink in the garage, and all the kids took part. And as a bonus, there were no injuries!
The kids weren’t satisfied with the garage so they went to a local park with a lot of paths to skate around on. It also gave them the opportunity to play on the swings and the playground which was great for burning off all the pent up energy from being stuck indoors so much over the prior weeks.
It wasn’t an all-skating week of course. We still found times more games including puzzle challenges, musical chairs, and dress up. It’s nice to see the weather improving so the kids get more time outside.
