SK8!!!!!

Cooper's got the moves with those skates!

We had to sit out for Jam skating. you could only go out on the rink if you could dance with your skates on. If not, they blew their whistle (real loud) at you.

Great knee high socks.

This is Party Panda. We made a circle around Party Panda while we sang the hokey pokey with our skates ON. Then maybe he would give you a balloon.

Late this afternoon we went roller skating at the local rink. Little scary walking up to the door. Lots of warnings and lots of very interesting people, VERY! Anyways, we didn't care, we were there to ROLLER SKATE! Not stir up any problems, not us. It was packed. We had a great time and it really is great exercise. My legs hurt a little. The best part was watching the girls race in the speed contest, Cooper almost getting knocked out by the big kid and Charlie smooth sailing across the floor. The worst part was Ava (last time around the rink) falls and re-opens her knee wound and then me, taking out this girl. I mean wiping her out on the skating rink floor. Me on top of her sprawled out. Quite embarrassing. Charlie even laughed. We ended the evening going through the Sonic drive through. You know, the people wear skates to give you your food. Ava should be really happy for awhile. She is the SKATING QUEEN.

Bobbi Marie LaBrant said...: He would have but I was taking a pic of him (skating backwards is never a good idea when you are over 18) and that is when I fell into the victim. He saw it all and skated right past me!; August 10, 2009 at 7:26 PM

IF by Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same; If you bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, and lose, and start again at your beginnings, and never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you except the Will which says to them; "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch, If either foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the earth and everything that's in it, and which is more, you'll be a man, my son!

our last christmas, little did we know!! we miss you-you are always in our thoughts. We sold his house, it was as if we had to say goodbye again. Nothing but fond memories. Movie night, hide and go seek, fishing, the beach, pool table, weight room, ice cream, bagels, peach diet iced tea, laughing...simply you. Miss you more than you will ever know. It feels as if it was just yesterday, thank God you are "free". "With your final heartbeat, kiss the world goodbye, go in peace and laugh on Glory's side. And fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus and LIVE....." .
