HockEy Tournaments (just for you Boots)

For all of you that follow (literally FOLLOW) us around the state to hockey tournaments, here are the ones that I am aware of so far:

Feb 7-8 Moorhead U12 Home Tournament
Feb 27-Mar 1 Moorhead U12 Districts @ Brainerd
Mar 6-8 Moorhead U12 Regions @ Silver Bay, MN (6 hours away!!!!!)
Mar 27-29 Elites @ Blaine (yeah Bootsie and Joe)
Apr 2-5 Superseries @ Plymouth (yeah Bootsie and Joe again)
Apr 17-19 Wildcats @ Breast Cancer Tourn in Blaine (again Boots and Joe!)
May 8-10 Wildcats @ Ice Palace Cup in Grand Forks
June 19-21 Wildcats @ Pepsi Cup Fargo/Moorhead
Aug 7-9 Wildcats @ International Cup in Blaine (B and J)

Micaela is playing in Elites and Superseries again this year. Andy will be the coach for both I believe. Brenna might also play in Superseries. Andy talked to the coach for the U9's and threw out B's name so cross your fingers that she gets asked!

I keep telling my dad to get a house in Blaine so we would have a place to stay for free since we are down there so often. I also told him he could rent it out to other Moorhead people too. He didn't go for it.

I am on the hunt for a new house for Poppy though. He finally took the initiative to look at a book and pick out a couple houses he wanted me to get more info on. We went and saw one a couple weeks ago that was very nice. It had a sand volleyball court, shed, heated garage and four bedrooms. It was PERFECT for Poppy. However, you all know how he likes to keep his money close and denied the purchase. I have an appointment next week to look at another one. Hopefully we can find him something before the spring so he can get all settled and I can pick out all the furniture. I am really good at spending other people's money!

Updated Hockey Photos

The first picture is of my fourth daughter Bri. She is the goalie for our U12 team and our Wildcats team. I took this pic while she was dancing in between periods.
