Linesman

Well, last week, Eric got himself a little 'job'. He is now old enough to be a linesman for any age group younger than him. He is very excited about this new adventure. And I must say, for his first two games he did well. Learning lots. The new boys did have a mentor and that was an excellent thing. He really helped the boys A LOT.

My camera takes really terrible pictures in our rink, but it was nice to capture his first game. I think his favorite part was dropping the puck.

Skate Boot Covers

So, these wouldnt load to facebook, so I am posting them here.

Jada's feet get so cold at CanSkate, so I decided to sew up some warm fuzzy covers for her to wear on the ice. Maybe this will help to keep her toesies warm. ANd I couldnt just sew them for one girl, so Sara got a pair of green snowflake ones as well. Jada's are the pink flower & butterfly ones. Both girls think they are awesome. I'll let you all know if they work. Till then.....

Happy Halloween!

What a beautiful day it was for all the trick n' treatin' there was to be had today!! Though we had a very sick Sara and she got no treating in. Earlier in the week we carved the pumpkins that we got from Grandma & Grandpa Welk. Jada would have nothing to do with the 'guts' inside the pumpkin. She was content to draw his face and hair on the front.

Eric and Sara are both very much into scooping the inside out with their hands. Ewww...is all I have to say about that. Both Eric and Sara get to use the knife and carve the creation of their choice for their pumpkins and each year they are gettin better and better.

Here is Sara with her finished pumpkin, it's a kitty. (I did help her draw it on and do some of the cutting.)

Jada wrapped her 'baby' in a blanket for the pictures. (She could carry around her pumpkin for days. It's so cute)

Eric did the vomitting pumpkin this year!!! NICE.

Here's a picture of the girls in their costumes. This was Jada's daytime costume, a mermaid. For the evening of trick or treating she was Sully off of Monsters Inc.

Eric was a homeless man, and I didnt even take one picture of him. Boo. So till next halloween...
