First hockey game!

My co-worker was selling tickets to a Victoria Royals local hockey game as a fundraiser for her sons hockey team. We mentioned many times to the kids that we should go see a live game even though none of us are huge hockey fans. Live games are always a good time so we bought some tickets and had a fun family night out!

We didn’t realize we were sitting in the family area where no beer is allowed. While sipping on a cold brew security came over and Jimmy & I got into trouble 😉 We had a good laugh afterwards.

 

 

 

Butchart Gardens

To celebrate the December birthdays of Debbie & Senna, we met up at Butchart gardens recently. Despite the heavy rain, we all found time to revel in the nighttime festive splendor of it all.

Hidden amongst the tour were displays depicting scenes from the “12 days of Christmas” song. The kids’ goal was to find all of the displays and their reward, given by the front desk, was a free candy cane (which they achieved, obviously). After riding the indoor carousel, getting drenched from the rain, and after many oohs and aahs, we all sat down to have some hot cocoa and warm up before we went our separate ways.

We are looking forward to Christmas dinner with everyone in a few weeks time.
