Ice skating

So its seems that going ice skating while Rick and Melissa are in town is a new tradition.
I have been wanting to go ice skating for while now and am so excited we finally got the chance.

Mathias was so excited to get on the ice and was pretty impatient while everyone else was getting their skates on. Mathias' skates that he had on have been passed down from his cousins Payden and Mitchell. Just to show you how big Mathias is, Payden whore these skates when he was 6 and Mathias is not quite 4 yet. They were a little big, but not much. Poor thing though, we forgot to bring some longer socks and the ones he had on were some ankle high ones, then we found out the next day that the skates where cutting into his ankles. He never really complained. He would take a couple of breaks but then get right back to skating. Mathias did pretty good. He always wanted to hold someones hand this time though and didn't really want to try it on his own. I guess we should probably go more than once a year, especially since he and Dev really want him to play hockey one day.

Here are a few shots of some of the fam that was there.
In the top left corner are Morgan and Courtney, then in the top right we have Melissa, Audrey, and Rick. In the bottom left we have Holland, Camryn, Melanie, Mathias, Dev, and Mitchell, and then in the bottom right is Payden.

And just because he is so cute and I take a million pictures, here are a few fun ones of Mathias by himself.
