Skates

So I've watched my fair share of US Figure Skating Championships this weekend and re-lived my child ambition.
When I was young, for a good year or two when you asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, it was "a figure skater". They're just the best.
I grew up watching begging my mom to let me stay up late to watch the competitions with her, loving Michelle Kwan and Scott Hamilton's back flips.
In fact I remember watching that exact performance when she wore the above red outfit. Yesir.
I didn't realize I was missing my fix so much until I earlier this month when just happened to turn on the TV and saw the US Champtionship on. (thank you karma!)
It has been great. But what is even better?,
Phil. Figure skating in his BYU pjs and bed head. Triple lutz-ing it up in the front room.
Welcome to our home. Professional and....not so professional skating consuming our weekends.
Love it.
