The Johnsons, Terrys, Paynes and Weavers hit the only existing rollerskating rink in the entire Treasure Valley, which happens to be in my old hometown of Nampa and is right around the corner from the Arctic Circle I used to work at in high school. Can you say "glory days"? We really had so much fun and pretty much owned the rink that night. Jenni Terry and I were cracking each other up because we got our groove back really quick, doing the crossover on turns and keeping beat with the music! I know as a 35 year old mother of 3 I should feel at least a little bit out of place at a 5th grade hangout spot, but I actually felt super cool. That's one good thing about myself...I can feel cool pretty easily! Several of us made it to the final rounds of the limbo competition, and my graceful exit was even captured for posterity! My personal favorite part of the night was watching my husband and his buddy Jared wear their matching black and shimmering gold almost Ed Hardy shirts with pride. We finished off the night adult style and ate at a really good restaurant that 5th graders can't afford!

I went rollerskating a few months ago. I am still awesome too! I couldn't do that limbo trick in my glory days let alone now. You rock! Would Max have been proud or embarrassed? Mine get extremely embarrassed.
LOVE this!! How fun... I'm impressed you guys still 'got it' - especially the limbo! Back in my 5th grade days I skated all the time, but not sure I could do it anymore.
Love the post! That night was great fun and I still suffer from roller - phobia. It won't be to soon before I'm in roller skates again!
You are such a teenager at heart!! You crack me up;) I don't think I have gone roller skating since my older kids where young many years ago, Ha.
You guys are so fun! I wish we lived closer so we could play too!!!
XOXO
