Roller Blading Experience

Roller Blading Experience

Ever since I was little, I've always enjoyed roller blading. I started with the old fashioned ones. The ones with the two wheels in the front and the two wheels in the back. It was hard at first, but as they say, "Practice makes perfect."

Then, i got these toy barbie in-line skates and I had to wear slippers to use them. LOL! It was funny, but I was a kid, so I didn't care.

Later, I got the regular in-line skates. Man, they were great. I would go out roller blading almost every day. i would go around the block, to church, etc. The freedom and the sense of peace I would feel from roller blading, was great. I had to give them up, because they were old.

Now, I've been searching for more than two years and wither they've been too exspensive or they never have them in the stores. I really didn't want to order them online, in case they didn't fit me. But, me and my ♥ went out this past weekend in search of them. We went to Walmart in Kendall, no luck. We tried a target that was close by and BAM! I got lucky. I found my exact size and in the color i ♥, baby blue. My ♥ on the other hand, found ones two sizes too big. But we were so pumped to go roller blading together with a group of friends, he bought his and mine as is. How cute is that?

We went out this past Saturday, Jan. 8th, with 3 of our friends roller blading @ Bayfront park. OMG! All my stress and frustrations faded away. I can't wait to do it again.

Enjoy this video. I haven't lost my stride, considering I haven't roller bladed in a couple of years.

Late Christmas Gifts

  Late Christmas Gifts from Nicaragua

Hope you enjoy this video. 
My brother and his wife went to spend Christmas and New Years and they've recently came back. 
I decided to show what a new relative we've only really met through phone, pictures, and I've spoken to through Facebook. I thought it was really cool and nice of her to send me something. I wasn't expecting it. I really wasn't expecting anything from anybody, but the fact that they thought of me and the the thought behind the gift was just amazing. It was too good to keep to myself. 

  The video was a little off, because it's a handheld camera, and I don't have a tripod yet. But, the quality of the video is what i wanted, it came out pretty good. Thanks. I'm including snapshots below on the gifts.
