Skates and blades

Ava got a pair of roller skates for her birthday, and has had fun learning to skate with them. I suggested to Tyler the other night that he could try out my roller blades. Yes, we're at that point where Tyler can wear my shoes. How did that happen? I got these roller blades about 14 years ago at least, and have not used them much in the last 13 years. They probably need the brake replaced, and could use a new set of laces, but are otherwise just fine. And, they fit Tyler so we're all set!

He hasn't skated much, so it took a little time on the basketball court for him to start to feel comfortable, but he got the hang of it towards the end. 
A little more practice and they'll be cruising around the block!
