Sunday - December 15

We all went to 10:00 Mass at Holy Trinity (Anne, boys, Auntie Karen, Mark and me).    Connor, Mark and I went back to our "home" and picked up presents, laundry, etc.    Then to Biaggi's for delicious pronto pak (pasta, salad, bread) which we brought over to Anne's and started our Christmas celebration with the Campbell's - great lunch and then opened presents.    I did 2 loads of laundry, Grandpa and I took little cat naps and came back home for a few hours as the snow was falling.   It's so soft and gentle - not sure how much we'll get as we're just on the northern fringe.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Before Liam's hockey game tonight, "Sophie", a figure skater was to come to the ice rink for some competition and the Sharks coach arranged (secretly) for the team to be dressed and skate with her.    I guess she was really surprised and neat for the boys.    Sophie is 18.

So we had planned to see Liam and the Sharks play - last game for us; however, the snow arrived and was coming down fast and furious.   They were to play Decatur and it's worse south of here, not all their team is here, so....we wimped out with the snowy weather.    The Sharks won 6-0 and Sophie's dad treated them to pizza after the game!

Yesterday was so fun watching the Campbell brothers on the ice passing the puck back and forth to each other!
