All - Star Lacrosse game


This past weekend was the All-Star Lacrosse game and skills competition here in Denver. Friday night was the skills competition and of course Matt wanted to go, which I was fine with because it was free. It was suppose to be a fun family outing until I got sick Friday afternoon and wasn't able to go. Matt and Skylar went anyway with our friends J.T. and Brittany and their two boys. Matt was able to get mine and his jersey's signed by some of the players that were there!! All the activities were on the field, which Sky really liked. Sky and our friends little boy Austin had a lot of fun just running around. What a surprise huh!! Matt took pictures with some of the players and he got a picture with the Mascott of the Colorado team. His name is Woolly. He's a big Mammoth. He's one of my favorite parts of the game. Here are some pictures from Friday night.





The next night was the actual All-Star game, but I was still sick so Matt & Skylar went with Matt's parents to the game. They had a lot of fun even though the East won.

Sky's New Favorites



Lately Skylar likes to do two basic things. The first thing is clean up the messes he makes with our dust buster. Of course this is a good thing. So first he makes the mess, which is very easy for him to do. Then he'll go get the dust buster and bring it to me and say "help" and point to the on button. Before I turn it on I have to make sure that nothing is on the floor that could get sucked up that shouldn't be. The main problem with Sky and his dust buster is that he doesn't want to turn it off. He just wants to keep it running even if he isn't cleaning anything. The dust buster is only a little smaller than Skylar so it's very cute watching him carry it.


Now on to his 2nd favorite thing to do. This is watch hockey. For those of you that don't know my husband, he is a sports fanatic. In other words he loves all sports including hockey. So Sky has picked this up from him. Apparently Skylar's favorite sport is hockey because as soon as we walk in the door Sky starts saying "hoc, hoc". He'll either grab the play station remotes or point to the T.V. He doesn't usually care which way he can see it as long as he can. He also likes to play hockey. He will grab two of his plastic golf clubs and a ball then come give one to me and say "hoc". He does pretty good considering he's not even two yet.
