Christmas morning

Merry Christmas!!!

While I wait for the girls to fall asleep anxiously anticipating Santa's arrival, I thought I would update a few things on here and wish everyone and their families a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Here are the original pictures that are on our Holiday card. The girls had fun decorating them using picnik!

Penguin Hockey!

We are very much appreciative that Grandma Bonnie found Daddy 4 tickets (2 given by Aunt Janet) to a Penguins game at the *new* Consol Energy Center during Thanksgiving break! This was Sam's first live game ever (and she was really into it - jumping up to cheer and clap), and Emma's first game since she was a baby! We all had a great time cheering the Pens to a 2-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators.

I was able to connect to this cool app in the arena and create this picture (they were not really on the jumbotron, lol)




They received a really nice bag as part of a giveaway, too!
