It has been a great season! So proud of Gabby and her team for the all progress they made as players learning the game. 🙂

Providence Bruins Game!

Here are some highlights from their intermission skate a Providence Bruins game!

Heading to our seats!

Sam loved see the “almost matching” Zamboni!

First group got to skate!

Then it was Gabby’s group’s turn.

And some video from ice level!

She got an awesome shirt, hat, and had so much fun!

Lookin’ Ahead to Next Season

Tryouts with Woburn.

Over the weekend we went to the Discovery Museum as part of Sam’s birthday celebration!

“This dinosaur is beautiful!” – Sammy

Listening to the ocean.

The lucky guy that gets to carry Gabby’s camera 😂

Some water fun!

Finished the visit outside at the tree house and slides!

Morning of his birthday, having breakfast in his “birthday chair.”

Truck cake!

Check out this amazing, custom banner made by Gabby’s awesome Aunt Julia!

Presents before school! Some beautiful rainbow heart hoops. 🥰

Some really cool roller hockey skates. 😎

Which had to be tried out before school!

And after! 🤣

And a B-I-Y (build it yourself) alarm clock.

And the “week of cakes” continues. Mommy and Daddy can’t avoid putting on the pounds on the Gabby/Daddy birthday week.

We are soo happy our friends were brave enough to join Gabby out on the ice for her birthday party!

So many friends! (Not all pictured.)

And of course the little brother was bouncing around. 😂

Pizza, cupcakes, and singing!

Daddy’s birthday cake! Gabby picked out the sprinkles 😂. Yes those are unicorns.

Presents!!

Me and the kids had some fun in the snow. Shaun isn’t pictured because he was snow blowing the driveway and helping neighbors too. He always wants to help, even on his birthday. Thanks for being you! Happy birthday Shaun ❤️

This year we made our way over to Buffalo to celebrate Christmas with family.

Even Mac endured the long car ride!

First stop, Christmas Eve at Nonno and Nonna’s!

Thanks Aunt Julia for setting up a scavenger hunt for the kids!

Visit from Santa!

Gabby taking Margo for a horsey ride!

Foosball!

Then, we made our way over to Grammie and Papa’s house for Christmas Day!

Thanks Aunt Jess for setting up some fun games for the kiddos!

So happy to meet Ruth 🩷

Open Skate at Canalside!

Shaun taught Leia how to ice skate!

Grammie and Papa pulled out some of Shaun’s old hockey jerseys and Gabby got to take one home 🥰

The kids enjoyed spending time with all their cousins!

Margo always had lots of smiles for Uncle Shaun 😀

Our favorite lady is one year older today! ❤️

The kids were so helpful with wrapping.

Mac even had a present for Mommy too.

Sammy was first to pass his out, but then he ran off instantly so he’s not pictured. 😂

And we had a nice evening out at one of our favorites, despite a small snow flurry. ❄️

It was so nice to attend Sam’s holiday celebration in his classroom. He was a bit too nervous to sing in front of all the parents but we were so proud of him for staying with the rest of his classmates through the whole performance!

It was also a great opportunity to see some of the work he’s been doing and found out he was the “Bee of the day”!

His teachers surprised all the kids with a gift too!

Time to decorate the tree!

Burlington’s Annual Tree Lighting!

Finally got some snow lol

These two can’t wait for Christmas!

Thanksgiving is such a great holiday. Especially when life gets busy, it’s an excellent excuse to slow down and spend a day together as a family. Mac always likes that! 🙂

What’s the best part? Starting with the Macy’s Parade?

Or the amazing treats, like peanut butter pie, pumpkin decorated brownies, pumpkin bread, and cinnamon rolls? (Cinnamon rolls, not picture; consumed instantly.)

Or the big family dinner?

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

This weekend Gabby had some awesome fans come to support her! Their cheering must’ve been a boost because she scored her first (two) goals!

Since the games are so early, there’s ton of time for breakfast afterwards. 😂
