Thursday, Jan. 21 was skate night for Ariel's school at Astro skate. Ariel had a great time and I got some cool pictures. I have been working on taking action pictures. I had the toughest time setting the camera to get good exposure because it was dark with glowing lights. 
Ariel was skating on rollerblades. She fell about 20 times, but she would immediately get back up and continue skating. In fact, that seemed to be the theme of the night, everyone seemed to be falling!
At the end of the night, the had races around the rink, first while skating around the rink. Then next, they raced with bare feet around the rink. Ariel came in first place (racing with bare feet), beating out the boys and girls of the fourth grade!
