Who would have thought......

...........you could have so much fun with a pair of thrift store skates? NOT MY KIDS! I found these beauties for $5 at the Good Will. I thought they were an awesome find and that my kids would have fun with them in the back yard. When I brought them home one day, to my dismay, they weren't impressed. They thought they were silly looking and had no interest.


Sunday afternoon while dad was taking a nap, I took the kids outside and talked them in to trying the skates. Payton and Avery had so much fun rolling on the pavement, that we spent the rest of the afternoon outside skating. I think after seeing his sisters take a few falls, Owen was afraid. He didn't try the skates, which was probably a good thing. Every time I aimed the camera at him he would make these weird poses and shout, "Batman", or "I am Spider-Man!" Sorry about the peanut butter cups dripping out of his mouth, it's gross I know. But the pics. cracked me up, so I had to include them! Thanks for finally trying the skates, girls. Did I know you would love them, YES?! Would this mom lead you astray..................NO WAY?!
