Snow Day

Another day spent snowed in...

Was well spent! We saved the princess on Wii Super Mario Brothers!
Dora enjoyed romping in the snow....
And tracking snow all through the house as well!
Since our last post, of course lots of fun has occurred...

We spent Christmas in Dallas.. (I actually think this occurred just prior to the last snowy post)

Cooper shared his bone with Dora. Unfortunately, she was not so nice back to him. She did not want to play..

We also got to see lots of fun friends including Brian and Kellie. We played giant Jenga and ate Babe's Fried Chicken...Mmmm.
We went to a NY Rangers vs. Dallas Stars game at the Garden... Stars lost, but we had fun anyway. The Rangers fans consider themselves self-loathing and actually frequently booed 2 of their own players just because they hate them.. One of them had an assist and when they announced this, the whole crowd booed his name. One fan told us they were secretly hoping the Stars would win. Quote from the guy behind us: "How can anyone hate a team from Texas?!"

We saw Finnian's Rainbow on Broadway. We got student rush tickets, so we only paid $26.50 for them. We tried this again to see In the Heights, but weren't so lucky with that show.

Another post to come soon with our exciting Thanksgiving adventures. I know... a little disorderly, but that's my life! :)
