Super (bowl) Weekend.

Last week was one of those weeks in which you feel like it was going to go on forever and you weren't sure if you were going to make it through it. Luckily I made it to Friday afternoon, the start of our weekend. Whew!

This weekend was again a weekend filled with lots of Fargo Force hockey. They were special games though with a mission for raising money for cancer. Friday nights game was centered around two young kids who have leukemia. They love the Force so the Force put together the event to help raise money to help with their medical bills. The kids got to drop the puck, ride the zamboni and do a bunch of other special things. It was a sold out game so a higher percentage of ticket sales went to the families of the children. It was awesome to see all the wonderful community support.
Here are some pictures that my husband took...

Saturday night was to raise funds for cancer in general. The game event happens every year and it is called "Pink in the Rink". All of the players wear pink jerseys, that are auctioned off at the end of the game to raise money for cancer. To make it even better, the Force played their best game of the season last night hands down! It was super exciting, yet stressful beyond belief. I felt like I got a taste for what guys feel like during the Super Bowl when their favorite teams play. Heart attack city! All ending with a win!








Fast forward to Sunday. Super bowl Sunday. Not something that is exciting in our household because we are not big football fans; however, we found a way to make it a little more enjoyable. I made up appetizer treats for us and we started off the festivities watching the puppy bowl too. Nothing like a bunch of cute young pups running around with each other. All in all it was a wonderful day of rest and treats.

Here is a picture of our feast :) (Notice who is checking out the feast--yes he got some)

Veggie Pizza and Taco Dip :)

I will try to hold onto this great relaxing day as I forge through another long work week. Hopefully we will have more time this week to do another belly shoot. We got home too late every night last week to do one but we need to do one so I guess this week it is! :)
