New Years Eve!
Looking forward to 2014, and all the good things to come!
Wishing you and yours all the best!
Senator's Game!
As a Christmas surprise, Santa brought our family tickets to the Senator's Game (Griffin's favourite team)! We arrived early to watch the warm up, and a good look at the players, because after that we were going all the way up to find our seats!
Throughout the game, we watched Sparty moving around the rink and finally got the chance to meet him! Griffin was thrilled!
Can you believe, this was my first NHL game as well?? These boys are spoiled!
Griffin used his money to buy Sparty the mascot and was thrilled to have him along with his monkey.
The boys loved the game, the Sens won 3-1, and it was the perfect holiday outing!
Thanks Santa!
Build a Bear Hockey Style!
We stopped at Build a Bear, so the boys could build their hockey pets! Owen chose a dog and Griffin chose a monkey (not surprise there!!)
Owen's dog was all dressed up in Vancouver Canucks wear and he named him Gizmo!
Griffin named his monkey JJ and dressed him in a Senators jersey!
This was a highlight of the day for both of them and mom too!
Skating in Ottawa!
We took the boys to Ottawa to see the Senators game this week, and stopped at City Hall to skate at the new rink. It was perfect, except for the -21 weather. We didn't skate long, but the Beaver tale and hot chocolate helped us get back out on the rink for a while longer. Best part of the skate, was Griffin learning how much he loved beaver tales... in fact the rest of the weekend... he begged for another!
The at the backdrop for this rink... perfect! If it weren't for the weather, this would be the perfect place to live, but being back for a bit reminded me of my years at university and remembering the cold!!
Dinner with Liette!
Our good friend Liette was married in BC in the summer and we sadly missed it.
We again missed her hometown reception on NYE, but instead took her and her husband out for dinner. It was nice to have the time to spend with them, and to get to know her new husband. Hopefully we will get to visit them in BC in a few years!
Perfect Day!
Perfect Day....
On Sunday, we headed to Kingston. We went to Tony's favourite, Five Guys for lunch and then headed down to city hall to skate on the outdoor rink.
The weather was perfect for a skate outside.
The boys had a lot of fun, and the setting was great!
After the skate, we headed the Menchies for ice cream!
Perfect day!
