SHOP THIS ADULT ROLLER SKATING PARTY LOOK:
Last week, I planned a little get together for the Houston chapter of The Blog Societies at the Dairy Ashford Roller Rink! I’ve been meaning to put this event together for AGES now, and with the upcoming TBS Conference on the horizon, I thought now was the best time.
We headed to the rink from 6-8pm for the Thursday Night Open-Skate. For less than $10 we all had a stand out girl’s night out to remember. If you live in a town with a roller rink, I’m telling you, you’ve got to plan an adult roller skating party with your girlfriends! It was seriously some of the most fun I’ve had in while. See why below!
The whole gang!
Just taking this picture alone required lots of concentration and skill. I hadn’t been on a pair of roller skates in years & years. Needless to say, most of us (if not all) were completely rusty on the rink!
But once we got the hang of it, we couldn’t stop smiling!
SHOP THIS ADULT ROLLER SKATING PARTY LOOK:
All that was missing was MMMbop playing in the background and my two brothers chasing me on the rink in their black & blue roller blades. Because … that was what happened every time we visited the roller rink back in the 90s. Oooohhh nostalgia sure is good for the soul!
The rink was complete with a colorful arcade and oodles of prizes that can be won at the stand nearby.
How cute would this be for a date night? It’s like the type of dates you see in the movies … but nobody thinks to actually go out and DO them. Patrick, want to go roller skating later this summer!?
Still not ready to trade my skates back in for shoes!
I also could not get over all of the candy and goodies up for grabs at the rink! So many of the bright and colorful candies were brands and flavors that I hadn’t seen since I was about 12-years-old.
We all spent several hours at the rink sipping on snow cones and skating the night away. On the rink, I felt like a kid again for a brief while… with all of my grown-up cares gone out the window.
I definitely recommend an adult roller skating party and night out with your girlfriends … or even your man. I promise you, it will be tons and tons of fun! Just be sure to request MMMbop by Hanson from the DJ! 😉
