A Vacation and a Staycation!

Mom took off for a weekend of hockey and friends in Montreal. I won't get into the details but it was a very, very, very fun time.  Two of my regular defence and I were invited to play with a team we didn't know.  We did well with the hockey and had a great time with our new friends.  Lake Placid next year.... yeeeha!

Meanwhile back on the home front, Dad and Sid had an amazing weekend of fun, games, family and daddy daughter time. 

Daddy planned ahead and filled his van with cardboard boxes and two rolls of packing tape.  Friday afternoon, Sid and Daddy created a castle which became the sleeping place for the weekend.  Here are a few pictures I had sent to me while I was away! :)

Daddy was such a trooper, he slept in the castle with Sid both nights and she slept better than she has in months!  He also took her out to her favourite candy store where he loaded her up with garbage can candy, fun dip and bubble gum.  She was really having a great time and not missing Mom at all.  Yay, more holidays for mom???? ;)
Saturday Sid was thrilled to bring Daddy to her 3 hour Karate class and he was a trooper.  After Karate they relaxed at home then took Grandmama out for supper.  Mmmmm delicious!

The weekend was a tremendous success for us all and we all feel energized from the change in our routines.  Now back to the big wind up to the karate tournament this weekend.  Here are a few videos of Sid's training this week.  Reece, in the first video, is a really good fighter and Sid's buddy.  If Sid can stand up with her, then she will do fine in the tournament against kids her age.  Enjoy!
