Days like today don't happen often enough. Right from planning today everything worked out very well. Jen had the day off work, I have had the whole week off school, and Alex only had a half day of school, so we planned a day in the city.

We have never been to the Discovery Centre before and being winter (to cold to be outside) thought it would be a good opportunity to visit. We all had a great time. There were many fun displays setup, but our favorites were definitely the different mirror displays and the bubble room.

For sometime I've been meaning to pick up a pair of skates. So yesterday I found a great used pair and picked them up. I think they have only been used once and had never been sharpened. Now I have not been on a pair of skates for over 10 years and never was a very good skater. But today Alex and I went skating at the Acadia arena. Alex kept telling me that she was going to teach me to skate and she was worried other people were going to laugh at me hahaha.

Well it went better than I thought. I didn't fall once, came close a couple of times though. Even though I didn't fall I was still pretty shaky. Alex can certainly skate circles around me. She is a great skater and she loves to do it. It was great getting out and doing something just me and her. We go places a lot but usually it is just driving in the car not actually doing something. Hopefully we will be able to get out a bunch more while there is still ice.
