{ice, ice baby}

Brrr..... It's coooooold here! School is closed due to the ice. We got several inches of snow -- quickly -- and then that turned to rain/freezing rain/sleet/hail/more fun stuff. There are several inches of ice out there and lots of trees are down. We lost power for a few hours in the middle of the night, but it came back on before anyone woke up. Here's what it looks like outside:

{who said sundays were relaxing?}

It's 9:00 and we've all been awake for almost 3 hours. Gerard is done with hockey practice already. Morgan and I did our weekly grocery shopping. Gerard is going to work on some homework. I am on my second load of laundry. Now we can sit home and brace ourselves for the next winter storm that is due at any moment. Maybe then I can take a nap.

Gerard and Morgan dancing at the wedding:

Here's a quick video of the kids walking down the aisle at Elizabeth and Brandon's wedding.

MORGAN: Buzz Lightyear is like Grandpa Ian.
ME: Why, because they are both so strong?
MORGAN: No, because they both have no hair.

{a girl can dream....}

...can't she?



Oh, Tamron zoom, how I love you!

{hockey tournament}

I forgot to post pictures from Gerard's hockey tournament 2 weeks ago. It was a cross-ice tournament and Gerard's team won all three of their games. He was goalie for the first game and shut out the other team. To be fair, he didn't see many shots, but I was still one proud momma! You know how I feel about being the goalie's mom!

Morgan was a real trooper, hanging out with me in the stands for about 4 hours then going to dinner with sweaty hockey players and then sitting through a hockey game that night. She deserves the trophy!
