Today, the McDowell kids were super spoiled. We began our day with rollerskating at Semoran Skateway. I was very impressed with all three kids! It was only Liam's second time on skates, and he did really well! He fell down a bunch of times but he kept getting back up and giving it another try. He wasn't interested in being on the "beginner" floor that they have in the back--he wanted to be out on the REAL rink with the rest of the kids!
Emily also did really well. I was particularly impressed with her for joining the games. Even though she's not the strongest skater, she got out there and did the Hokey-Pokey, the Cha-Cha Slide, and the dice game (which is kind of like Four Corners but they have six cones set up and they roll a die to see which cone/s are out)! She spent some time helping Liam skate, too.
Bailey is the best skater of the three kids. She got the hang of it really quickly and was out on the rink by herself most of the day! We had so much fun we may go again next week!
After skating, we were all hungry so we headed to Steak-N-Shake for a yummy lunch and milkshakes! Then it was home to swim in the pool and take a rest. That evening, Daddy had a surprise for us: he took us to see
Finding Dory! I think it was the first movie that we all saw together, which is a really exciting milestone! The kids did really well in the movie theater so it's nice to know we can start doing that more often.
What an awesome summer day of fun!
