The Goalies

Bige was in goal for his hockey team so he was wearing the goalie gear around the house to practice. Peanut, ever interested in hockey, wanted in on that action. She went and put on BigE's ball hockey gear.

The Kids Portrait

BigE was trying really hard to keep every one line for a nice picture.



And it just got worse.

Who needs toys

You've heard how kids will play with the box rather then the toy. How about the toy container rather then the toys?

Peanut's Dancing

I missed a bunch of great Peanut dancing performances during BigE's recent hockey tournament. This is one little nugget to give you a glimpse of how much she enjoyed the music between the whitles.

BigE's First Hockey Tournament

BigE's first hockey tournament was the 67's Experience. They did a great job of giving the kids a sense of larger league play. Goals were announced over the PA and they had these great intros where the lights were dimmed and each player was announced by name.

I love Raspberries

but only when I get to steal them from my sister's bowl. When you give them to me I'm not really that interested.

That was quite a photo Mama got.

I'm so happy!

I love counter surfing!

Happy 7th Birthday

BigE is the big 7 today. He awoke to find an obviously wrapped composite hockey stick from us. However there still seems to be nothing like unwrapping stuff.

as we headed downstairs BigE found the Playmobil police station he'd been eyeing

Several police accessory sets

And the RC helicopter. It was a big hit once it got opened.
