This morning I hung out with the kids in the playroom.
Mack decided to play in the toy box.

We made a huge mess.
This is usual for our house.

At lunch my parents called me up and asked if I was okay
if they took Sean to the park to toboggan.
It was a beautiful day today, why on earth would I have said no?

Sean had a blast!

Our bathroom got painted today. I think it looks great. The color is called Smoke. It’s grey with a hint of blue.

I’ve been working on my February Lady Sweater.

I can so be done before closing ceremonies.
Not only will this be my first sweater ever… but it’ll have been knit in less than 2 weeks.
Now, that’s an accomplishment!

After Mack got up from his nap we got organized and dressed.

And we went over to my parents house for dinner. We stayed until after the first period of the Canada vs. USA Men’s hockey game. After the kids were in bed we sat down to unfortunately watch Team Canada lose. We still have a chance though, on Tuesday night. We’ll be playing Germany (I am pretty certain it’s Germany). I still have faith in our boys. I am very disappointed in Martin Brodeur’s game tonight. We have the best of the best of NHL players born in Canada… I don’t understand why we lost to the USA today. It just doesn’t make any sense.

You are very lucky to have parents that love the out doors and have fun with you kids in the snow. I NEVER played with my parents or grand parents in the snow! And my kids do not play with their grand parents in the snow. We are more summer people. LOL
Great action shot of you parents & Sean on the sled. Gotta love the hi end cameras.
BTW, you sweater is looking mighty swell.
Lastly, that Mackie is too cute. I want him!! Tyler would kill me if I brought him home. He is soo jealous. HAHA

You guys have a lot of toys. I shouldn't talk though... The sledding looks like tons of fun. Sorry about the hockey. I did get to see that game.

Your sweater fits perfectly!! I wish I had a snowsuit. And I am writing down that bathroom colour. It's very soothing. :)

I love the color you picked for the February Lady Sweater. I am knitting one now as well!
I cannot wait to finish, and I'm sure you feel the same.
