Happy Fall {Hockey Season} and the best healthy foods for the season!
Happy Hockey Season!
???????????
Ya see most people see this time of year as when Autumn starts….but in this family its when the travel season begins! I am in no way complaining, I love watching my son on the ice. I enjoy watching him grow and develop his skills. What I most enjoy is watching him prove how determined he can be and that he doesn’t give up no matter how many shots are hit at him (literally, he’s a goalie!)??
Recently we had the opportunity to play at a showcase up in Rhode Island, for the of you who don’t know, that’s my hometown area!
It was so special to see many of my family & friends attend some of the games. Camryn was shocked and
I think it really pumped him up for the big game….which we won by the way!!
Here he is blocking the puck!! GO JUNIOR!!! (That’s his hockey nickname, lol)
I decided this year to get a jump start on my fall decorating. It is, by the way, my favorite season of the year….this year it was still 80-90 degrees outside and I’m like….where should I place this pumpkin and leaves!!
The first day the temp dropped below 70 was perfect for a dress and boots kinda weather!
They may argue often and not have the same taste in hobbies, but it’s always a major MOM WIN when they support each other.
Do you have multiple children?
Do they argue, but love each other immensely?
Is this a “brotherly love” thing?
