Our Skater Girl

Tori has recently discovered her love for roller skating. Last summer we got a pair of roller skates at our family reunion garage sale for 25 cents, and they have pretty much just collected dust since then. A few months ago Tori put them on, and she has hardly taken them off since! The second she gets home from somewhere, off her shoes go, and on the skates go. She will keep them on for hours skating through the house, and just going about her business. Here are but a few instances where I was able to catch her to take a picture when she had her skates on. You will notice she always has a dress or skirt on as well. That's another recent obsession of hers =)


You can imagine her excitement when, over spring break, I told her we were going to go to skate city to go roller skating! She wanted to put her skates on second we walked in the door.
I was sitting on the side lines chatting with a friend, when I looked up to see Tori holding Levi's hand and helping him around the rink. I ran fast to get a picture of the precious moment. Tori is always so sweet to her little brother =)

You would think that after a day filled with skating, Tori would need a break. But when it came time to go she insisted on leaving her skates on. She skated through the parking lot to the car, and wore them the whole way home. She was a little tired once we got home, so she decided to lay down and watch some t.v. Not without her skates though! =)
