This week was all about skating. Jazzy made alot of progress .... skating alot faster, stopping, making turns. Each day, in addition to skating for about 3 hours, they also had karate and crafts. Today they set up a little "water park" behind Polar Ice. I wasn't there because I had to go to work, but I heard it was alot of splashing around in a water hose and going down the water slide and little swimming pool. It was funny to see Jazzy at the Ice Rink with her swim suit on.
Tonight was also the last night of summer lessons. Each group had a little exhibition. Jasmine got to do a little routine on the ice all by herself... with her teacher -16 yr old Amanda... who taught her the routine. I have it all on video:)) Jazzy was promoted up to Snowplow Sam 3 since she did so well at camp this week... with the stipulation that she would have to go back down to Snowplow Sam 2 if she didn't pay attention .... which has been an issue lately.
Jasmine eating pizza at the rink tonight after her last summer lesson. (We start the "fall" lessons next week!). Normally, we don't eat at the Ice Rink because the food is extra greasy cheese ball kind of stuff, but this was a "special occasion". Acting silly as usual.
Jasmine and Kimberly. Kimberly is about my age, mother of Amanda... Jasmine's teacher....and is the coordinator for the classes and camps at the rink. Kimberly is the instructor for the "Parent and Me" classes and acted as Jasmine's parent last year in the class... because I really didn't want/need any more broken bones in my life. She offered to do it, and I took her up on it:)
Practicing her routine with Amanda... Kimberly's daughter.
