Ice Skating

The kids have been taking ice skating lessons for the past 6 weeks or so. They have greatly improved from their first slippery attempts, and now both can move around on the ice with relative ease. They still fall, but not quite as much, and they're even learning how to skate backwards. Nicholas' goal seems to be to go as fast as possible, while Andi is striving to be the best twirler and skating socialite. I'm working up my nerve to go skating with them sometime, but as I'm not a skater, I fear for my tailbone! Maybe the kids can give me some pointers.
