Cooper on Ice

Friday night we took Cooper to the Ripley Winter Carnival (and it actually snowed for pretty much the first time al winter).

There was  a kids’ costume skate… so we got the old Lion costume out, strapped on the skates and hit the ice.

This was daddy’s first time on the ice for 3 or 4 years (and second time in more than 10 years) so it was a bit of the blind leading the blind, but both guys did great!

“But I don’t WANT to go skating!”

It was fun while it lasted.

Don’t worry everyone. I’m OK!

All that skating makes a man hungry.
