Roller Skating Queen...NOT!

Where I spent my Saturday Afternoon:

We went rollerskating with our three boys yesterday.
{And our best friends and their kids-}

NONE of the six kids can skate.

{Well, one of ours, and one of theirs does now-}

My arms are sore from holding two of my littlest ones up to protect them from self-inflicted closed-head injuries.

But we had fun-So. Much. FUN.

Yes, the pictures are blury-they are from my not-so-high-tech-phone:

{And Yes, this is really a post for my boys.}

I can't imagine who else would still find rollerskating "cool" in the year 2010.

I remember it was "The Thing" in 1985, though~

Imagine me in my ice blue eye shadow, with my Jordache jeans, listening to "Eye of the Tiger" and rollerskating in my basement with my sister while mom was ironing...

Ahhh~The good, old days....

But we really did have so much fun yesterday with our best friends, and all of our kids.

{Indulge me while I show you the blury pictures.}

My two older boys seriously improved as they skated another lap around while listening to the modern hits of today...
Nature Boy: Determined.
Dancing Boy: Improving, but likes holding an adult hand~
Happy Boy: Fearless! Terrible! Should have a helmet!
And~

Who knew this "roller skating in 1985 gal" would still love it today?

{...Or at least until my arm muscles started hurting last night from holding my boys up to protect them from themselves!}

(...Who was a roller skating NUT in another lifetime!)
