Vance's first speed meet

Vance's first speed skating meet in Auburn January 15-17. He placed 4th in all 3 races and was super happy about that. He is number 179 in the photos.

Waiting and watching.

Seattle Aquarium. Arya loved it. Vance was like "Ok, I've seen enough fish. Let's go"
Pre-race sleep in the motorhome with Arya
Vance and his friends. Friends --a great part of speed skating. Vance has made new friends at practice and at meets. He is learning to listen well, follow routines (not required by mom), and be social. Six months or a year ago, he would have never done this. But he has grown so much since them. He skates ago in February in Bremerton.

Great posts and write-ups. Yes, Vance has blossomed and I agree that the spreed skating is a part of it. The new Vance is awesome. I also love that at this time of year Ty is able to participate and have the "guy time" with Vance.

Hello-

I recently came across your blog and wanted to reach out to you in hopes of you posting about an event that we're particularly excited about at Primrose Schools.

I have an article/event that I would like to submit that is about dancing and how it relates to fitness. Primrose Schools is hosting a Dance Off competition (with proceeds going the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals) for families and I think it is something you and your readers would enjoy!

I look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you,
Emily Patterson
