Mom. You're heart is made of gold!  -Sam 

Quotes

SAM---

"My heart is very sad the you won't let me watch Scooby Doo and the Spooky Zombie." - Sam

"I very love my hockey guys."  - Sam  (he uses "very" instead of "really" often and it is awesome!"

"Mom, you are fired!" - Sam (after I didn't buy him a hockey puck)

"Mom, I've it a good idea. You stay up here and make us food and clean the house and dad and I will go downstairs and put up my new Wild sticker and play hockey. Is that a good idea?"

"Morning. I was thinking. Wilcox didn't play very well in the Colgate game. It's like he needs more power or something." (This occurred about 3 weeks after he went to the game)

"Mom and Dad come here! I have something that might blow your mind. I think you should take a picture when you get here.
Here is my hockey table- do you love it?"

"Holy cows mom. You're just the best mom I've ever seen."

LAUREN---

"Ya Ya" (Translation: Love you)

She can now point out puppies ("pa-pees"), hockey ("ack-eee")

She points to her butt now when she poops and says "poop"

She says "yeeeeaaaahhhhh" when you ask any question - THE cutest thing ever.

New Years 2014

Girl time/dance party

Shocking. He is a goalie.

So glad Colin joined us this year

Sam has improved SO much and is becoming quite the skater

They had the best time playing hockey all night at Uncle Andy's rink

Words of window before the new year

Cousin time

Right before the ball drop - yes, we all made it to midnight!
