Mercedes and the Girls

Mimi came along on several errands, this morning, as it's a non-school day.  She has really enjoyed having school three times a week this year.  On some of the days without school she seems a little more at loose ends, and on others she seems to like the slower (or faster, depending on what I drag her around to!) pace.  She found these at the party store.

This afternoon all three girls put on their skates/rollerblades and took to the sidewalks!  Mac is doing well with form.  I hope what she's learning on the sidewalk will translate into more fun on the ice while ice skating!

Bless their little hearts, they are still young enough to suit up and get all the protective gear on without complaining.

They often ask me to take their picture these days.  I happily oblige!
