Hockey fete

This weekend we had an exclusive invite to a 30th birthday bash up in bellingham.  Nick's buddy Dane turned thirty this week and his gorgeous wife Gretchen gave him surprise party the sports plex in Bellingham.  It was so cool, the whole rink was rented out and there had to have been 50+ people and tons of kids.  I'm so glad dev reminded me to grab his hockey sticks and a puck!  Dev was not a fan of just skating around per se...i.e., grabbing nick and otherwise freaking out.  Well once nick gave dev his hockey stick and a puck all was well.  Nick was super proud.  It was pretty amazing to watch a kid, who at times we question his ability to walk like a normal human, actually stand on the ice and hit a puck!!
Tova on the other hand had absolutely no reservations about the ice.  Once I let her walk out on the ice once that was it.  Couldn't keep the chick off it.  My toes were going to fall off so I really have no idea how she was ok but she was.  They let kiddos get rides on little buckets the rink has and she was all about pushing the kiddo chairs that she wasn't even tall enough to see around.  It was hilarious, she was so excited!
We had a friend take a few family pictures so I hope to have a follow up post soon but here is the preview.
The ice is calling Tova and dev is wolfing down some dinner faster than I've ever seen after his two hour skate session as he watches the adults hit some slap shots.
