Skate boarding in the house. WHAT?????



KC has been trying all summer to do board tricks. The next door neighbor kid has been trying to teach KC. He did a good job but told KC a few fibs along the way.


We went shoe shopping due to the need of new shoes. I set the price limit and made my suggestions and I let KC go from there. 1hr later he still had not picked a pair. Either the price was too high or the shoes weren't in his size. He still would not consider my suggestions and continued to his search. It finally came down to this "Mom if I don't get these skate board shoes I will never be able to do an ollie." KC is yelling at me and his face is beat red and his veins are popping out.
I sent him to take a breather and showed him the shoes I remember my brother wearing and the shoes his father wore to skateboard in.

More time went by and Scott came to help and set KC straight on shoes and tricks. We left with a pair of black sneakers for everything use.

Later that day KC comes in requesting a new REAL skateboard. His isn't the best and one that Tony Hawk would use but it is a skateboard and you can still do the tricks on it. We tried to find out from him what a REAL skateboard is. All he could say was the nieighbor kid has one and it has more grip on it and this and that. So Scott decided to look up ollies and skateboards on u-tube and because it was so stinking hot outside and hard totake the computer out to watch utube ollie videos we did it in the house.

Wow zoe can do tricks on KC's board and she is in a dress. How about that.
