Skating in the backyard and our first fire!!

We built a rink in our backyard.

 The boys love having it out there and as you can see play on it right until bed time.

These pictures are from the inaugural skate and the ice was not very smooth.  The boys did a lot of falling down.

We built a fire in our fireplace.

This picture was taken by D.



Merry Christmas

We decorated our home.  D picked out the colour of the lights.

Little A was so excited he could not help but dance.

We had G2K over Christmas Eve and played games and had a great visit.

They slept soundly after they fell asleep.

This is Little A singing a song for us Christmas Morning.



Merry Christmas!!

D's Holiday Concert

The Bow!!

The last two weeks.

It started with a hair cut for both of the boys.  This is the best shot I have after many feet in the air, and goofy faces.

Then it was little A's Holiday concert.  He welcomed everyone for coming to the concert.

Then D and I went to a 67's game.

D got to play goalie for his team.  Here are some action shots.

Here is D in his new goalie equipment.

The D had his Holiday Concert. 

Video to follow.

Skating lessons and Skating with the Bandits

The Boys have been taking skating classes.  Little A is getting quite good.

D's team was asked to skate with the Cumberland Bandits for a warm-up and for the National Athem.  The announced the boys when they got on the ice and they got to take shots on a goalie and pass the puck to the player. They were all pretty excited.

D loved watching the Bandits warm up from behind the net. He has picked up a few new goalie moves.

Little A's Birthday Party!

Little A turned five this week.  We had a birthday party today to celebrate.

K played Happy Birthday for us!

 

I love this picture of the four cousins.  They sure love having each other close.

Happy 5th Birthday!

Birthday at the 67's

We had a birthday party for D at an Ottawa 67's game, with friends and family. 

We had a suite at the game.

Killer puck came by to wish D a happy birthday.  The Raccoon and Midway Max also came by for a high five from everyone.

They made this fantastic cake.

D wanted to eat the piece which had the killer puck on it.

They flashed this picture of D on the screen and wished him a happy 6th birthday! 

(D picked the picture)

We had a great time.  This is the best way to watch a game.
