Happy Monday to you Friends
Is your week off to a good start? The sun is shining here today which always puts a spring in my step. ☀️
It was a fast and fun weekend in my world. Annie was asked to play in a kind of all stars hockey tourney a few hours away - with other gals that were top ranked players around MN. Matt and I went down to watch on Saturday and spent the whole day there. We went to her early game. And then went out to eat with her and the family friends she was staying down there with for the weekend. We had time to kill before her 2nd game, so Matt and I went and donated to the local economy and had a lot of fun doing some shopping. Some things that were on our list and some that weren't. :) And then we watched her evening game before heading home. Her team won both games we watched, and in fact won all of their games this weekend and took home first for the whole tourney! Pretty cool 🏅
On the way home Matt & I were belting out tunes in the car. Lol It was great! I love that he loves music and loves to sing as much as I do. He's pretty amazing at harmonizing too, I gotta say. He's just my bestie in the whole world and we always have a blast whatever we do together. ❤️
And it's awesome because he doesn't need glasses anymore! He got one eye all fixed - and is wearing a contact in his other until he has that surgery later this month. I think he feels like he has a whole new lease on life having better vision! Modern medicine sure is amazing sometimes, isn't it?
Now to dive into the week ahead...

FROM THE CAMERA:
All of this sunshine and no snow makes it already feel like Spring is here
When Matt & I were out shopping between Annie's games there was the prettiest sunset and Matt caught this pic for me :)
My girl was #8 in green for this special tourney and her bestie was #2
This series of 3 shots I caught of my girl on a break away. She, unfortunately, didn't score but it was a pretty awesome moment. 🤩
