Skaty

One of my favorite parties past was my 35th birthday party.  We were going almost weekly to kid's birthday parties as the skating rink listening to awful, awful music.  The idea started like this, "How cool would it be to skate to a soundtrack that you created?"  So I rented out the skating rink and invited friends and family to come and skate their brains out. 

We brought in cookies and cake and otherwise guests accessed the snack bar.  Notice the fancy skates on Rose (second from left).  She skated circles around us.  At one point she actually zoomed by tucked in to the classic one knee bent one sticking straight out position.

I made a playlist named, of course, Skaty.  Got to love skating to "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" by Flaming Lips; also songs by Beck, the Replacements, and well as some rink classics "YMCA" , "Funkytown", and "Downtown".  Guests took home copies of the CD.
