Hockey Day in Summerland


My baby is almost 8!! Today Cory had his birthday party..his actual birthday is on Thursday, but we celebrated with his school friends today!! As you can see from the pictures, it was all about hockey!! This was the first year I bought a cake...ever..for any of the kids! Cory is part of the CForce Junior Canucks fan club at Save on Foods and when he saw that you could get a Canucks cake..well that was it!! I must say, I missed making a fancy cake, but also enjoyed the ease of just picking it up..no fuss, no muss!! Rachel and Amy also joined the ranks and sported their hockey jerseys for the occasion!!

It started with mini sticks in the basement...












And then we laced up all the skates and headed out to the Berekoff backyard rink..where they played hard for an hour and a half!!!


Then it was inside for cake and presents...it truly was the easiest birthday party I've ever done.



Happy Birthday Cory... it is hard to believe that almost eight years have passed since you surprised us as a January baby!! You have grown up so much from a 5lb 12 oz peanut to a tall, confident, smart young man!! I am so very proud of the person you have become!! We love you!!

Happy Birthday Cory. Looks like they had so much fun. By the way your fireplace looks really nice in the background, as well as the tv on the wall. You guys did a great job on your renovation.
