Mom of Twins!

I am a proud Mom of twins but this made me laugh out loud! You must check this out and you'll be able to relate to what I deal with at least once a week!

Hockey!

Our second season of hockey is in full swing! Michael is now in IP2 and continues to be super happy to get out on the ice! He has improved so much! Steve is still coaching and loving it. It's nice that he can relate (a little) to the challenges of "teaching" 6 year olds!! When ever he gets frustrated and vents to me about the kids not listening during practice...I remind him that I do it everyday, with MORE children, in a more boring setting, in a language they don't even understand! LOL!
Here's our little hockey player about to leave for practice and with our neighbour Hailey!

Christmas Concert 2010

Christmas concert time again! Song practiced, outfits picked out and we were ready to go! The whole family was pumped that Steve was actually going to BE at the Rose-des-vents concert this year since he's been away for the last two. Well...in true Search and Rescue fashion...15 minutes before Abbey and Michael were to go on...Steve got called out. There was a missing plane in Quebec that they had to go search for! Abbey and Michael were quite disappointed (Steve too) but...the show must go on!!! and that it did!!!
Abbey and Michael did a fantastic job again this year! I took a video so Steve and all of you could share in the excitement!
I have tried several times to load the video and unfortunately it's just not working! Take my word for it...it was super cute!
Joyeux Noel a tous! xoxo

Abbey's First Piano Recital!

Abbey had her first piano recital a little while back! So exciting...and nerve raking! Abbey was 16th to play (our lucky number) and all eyes & ears were on her for the 2 minutes she performed! I was seriously holding my breath because I could tell she was a little nervous too! She did fabulously and I can't believe how much her teacher has taught her in three short months. The best part is that she is really enjoying it! Kudos to Gina again for making piano so fun!
Mary's children, Jackson and Sophie, also performed wonderfully! Mary had front row seats so she took these for me! Thanks! :-)

SNOW!

We had our second "big" snow last weekend which lasted about 2 days...but we made the best out of those two days!!! Our neighbour Scott started up his quad and attached our sleds to the back and off we went into the woods behind our house! SOOOO fun! Here we are leaving the yard...


There's a HUGE sand pit in the trails behind the house! Perfect for sledding.
I LOVE playing in the snow!

Happy!

I have this picture of my parents on my desktop and I look at it often. It just makes me smile! It was taken in South Carolina this year. There's nothing nicer than seeing your parents happy!
I love them so much and cherish the relationship we have!
I'm getting EXCITED for their visit! Only 12 sleeps left to wait!
