How I spent my 3 day weekend.....Words and photos by Karrie.
Freeeezing my arse off in a ice rink, that's what I did!! This weekend was "The Artic Blast" winter hockey tournament. Mother Nature decided to have the weather stay with that theme and we had freezing temps, freezing rain, snow and nasty wind.
For 3 days straight starting Friday night I had to play nice and sit there being supportive. Ok, so I did enjoy most of it.... The kids always love these things and have a blast. We have teams from Canada and eastern Washington show up and I have to admit that Boodge's hockey club puts on a good tournament. But there really is no rest and by the end even a saint's nerves would be frayed.... And no one has EVER mistaken me for a saint!!
Highlights for the Boodge were 1 goal, 1 asst, 4 penalty minutes (real proud of that one! *rolls eyes*), taking a chunk out of his tongue and a cut on his chin from a high stick. The best part for him was the blood, of course! Oh yes, loads of fun for mom!
Meems had her moments too - One of the refs goes to school with Meems and spent the game smiling at her! Dad loved that on two levels - 1) As Boodges coach, he wanted to ring his little neck for missing penalties and 2) as Meems Dad, he wanted to ring he little neck for smiling at Meems the whole time! I loved it! She also does the music for the team, and she decided she didn't wanted to do it for the late 2nd game. The kids revolted and swarmed her to do it again. Lucky Mom kept the music in the car just in case..... hehe.
We were beat by Sunday afternoon. Home and in bed early and we still didn't get up until after 10:00 this morning (had the day off - Yippee!)
Here are some pics, took them with my new camera phone! Not bad, this little phone could come in handy!
DJ Meems!
Oooooooh the BLOOD!!
Oh and speaking of phones (we were earlier, remember), if anyone spots a Hysteria ringtone for a Motorola V265 cell phone, let me know, PLEEEEEZ!!!! I can't find one and it's the only one I REALLY want! Figures.....
Anyhoo, have a good one! I'm off to surf the web for Vegas stuff.
