All the kids and parents skated, despite this been the first time on the ice for all the kids, they all did a great job, they were fearless. In no time most of them were zipping around the ice. Ben wore his ice-hockey jersey (even though it's an adult size)


Even Mom managed to wobble on the ice (what you can't see in this photo is I'm holding on to a pile of upturned buckets for balance)

The birthday cake (courtesy of Safeway) was Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Notice Jonathan's little face watching Ben blowing out the candles.

Jonathan had a blast at the party (even though he didn't skate), one of the highlights for him was the cake.
Notice the band aid on his finger, that was the only casualty - before the kids even got on the ice, they were all running around the party room in their skates. One of Ben's friends accidently stepped on Jonathan - he ended up with a gash the size of the skate blade - ouch. Amazingly, Jonathan got over it within a couple of minutes; unfortunately, Ben's friend was heartbroken, it took a lot of hugs from his Dad before he would calm down.
