Today we went to the town Halloween ice skating party at the Lab City Arena. Every time we go to Cooper's ice skating classes Ryder asks if he can go on the ice and skate so I bought him a pair of bob skates which have two blades on each skate.

The arena has plastic frames to help kids learn to skate so Ryder used one of these. At first he was trying to lift his feet, almost running, causing him to slip all over the place but it didn't take too long for him to slow down and glide using the frame for support. Ryder kept skating across the rink and banging into the wall before turning around and going back again. He was on the ice for the full hour, getting more confident and telling me, "Me do it myself!" and skating away from the frame. Meanwhile Cooper was skating around with his Spiderman cape on, zooming past Ryder and giving him plenty of encouragement.
