From FEMA to Family

The family had a much anticipated albeit indoor movie night on Friday. Complete with a futon nest, popcorn and rootbeer that settled mightily in bellies already filled from a junk-food supper. Saturday the snow pounded down adding and an additional five inches over the day and some pretty good drifts. The kids pretty much laid around the house, our FEMA project and watched a cartoon marathon complete with sponge-bob (I refuse to treat this as a proper noun) and Arthur et. al. We did rouse everyone in time to make a 7pm Gamblers game which came down to the final shot in a shoot-out. The game set two records one for the number of teddy bears tossed onto the ice (6,021) and another for attendance about 6700 people. The teddy bears are donated to the pediatrics ward of a local hospitable. The people attending, I presume returned to their respective houses. Sunday necessitated a massive clean up effort after two days of ignoring said task. Lisa's inlaws came over in the afternoon and we headed out to the Sophia's Sunday night hockey practice. She skated well and tallied up 24 goals, apparently a three generation audience suited her. Merrick did his part to hollar everytime a puck smacked the glass. This post is again sans photos after pushing the USB port all the way into our camera body.
