The medical system I work for is a sponsor of the local professional hockey team the Checkers and they offered us discounted tickets to a game, so we took the kids. Aubrey was in heaven because she had decided that hockey was her favorite sport, despite never attending any prior games. But, Mason loves all sports equally so he was just as happy. Aubrey and I missed the first goal because we were going to the restroom but we got to meet their mascot Chubby on the way, so it made up for it.
Aubrey's school always has spirit week in February and she loves the chance to dress in clothes other than her uniform for a week. We found the perfect items to make an 80's outfit for decades day and it was perfect.
Todd and I took a trip to Charleston to visit an old coworker of mine so the kids got to spend a weekend with their Aunty Lacey and they were thrilled. I didn't take one picture of the whole weekend but it was so nice to get away for a weekend without the kids.
We had to leave Charleston super early to get home and get Aubrey ready for her first dance competition showcase. She started the team this year and while I was excited for her, I was also a little nervous. Aubrey was one of the 2 youngest on the team and I was wondering how she would fit in and dance compared to the older girls. I should have known not to worry because they used her littleness to their advantage and used her in all the lifts, which made her feel super special. It made this momma's heart drop a beat watching her go up in the air but she loved it, which made it all better.
So, that was our quiet February. Quiet and calm after the storm.
