Hockey in Canada

So my sister and taras have what's called a dug out behind there house where the cows drink out of in the summer!! We'll taras and Ryan went out there and shoveled the snow off this ice so we could go out and play some hockey and that's exactly what we did!!! It was so much fun to be out in the country and be able to play hockey on a frozen over sheet of ice!! What a fun great experience it was!! Thanks Taras and Sister!!!


Brady is getting all geared up to go out in the frigid weather!! It was so cold there!!
Here he is for the very first time trying out his new hockey skates with daddy!

Auntie Shauna and Uncle Ryan out playing some hockey!!


We played two on one, taras and I were on a team and ryan was by himself! (Sorry babe!!) But we kicked butt!!



This pic is hilarious!! Here i am trying to look like i know how to play hockey!




Brady loved, loved, loved being out there!! He is holding onto daddy's hockey stick!!





Daddy and Brady!! When he had to go back to the tahoe he cried, he didn't want to go back yet, he wanted to still be out there skating!!

Auntie and Uncle!!

He cried when mom came and got him, you can tell in this picture that he is wanting to go with daddy!! Poor kid, all he wanted to do was be out there with us, but it was so cold that he couldn't be out there long!! Your probably wandering how cold, like -20 celcius.

Such a cute pic!! Daddy's dream i'm sure to have his boy on hockey skates!! Such a proud papa!


This is looking at the back of my sister's house!! I wanted to take a picture from where we were skating to where there house is!!

Proud daddy with his little boy skating out there on the ice!!!

He was so cute, he was just taking it all in, everytime taras would pick him up to carry him, he wanted to be down there skating on that ice!! Hockey star is born!!!

This kid has no fear!! He absolutely loved this!!

He did not want to be held, he wanted to be on that ice!!

Christmas In Canada

I am such a slacker at this blogging thing!! I need to try to be better about updating it more.

We had a great Christmas!! Ryan and I at the last minute decided to go to Canada and Surprise my Sister!! It was a surprise because we didn't get there until Christmas Eve, She thought for sure we weren't coming since it was Christmas Eve and when she saw us she was so surprised and she cried (pregnancy hormones) she was so happy that we were there. It was so much fun being able to be there with my adorable little nephew Brady!! I miss him so much, he is at such a fun age!! It took him a bit to warm up to his auntie, which is hard for me, he can point us all out in a picture, but it took him a minute when he saw us, it makes it so hard since we live so far away from each other.

I am very grateful to my hunny that he realizes how important it is to me to be able to go up to Canada every other year for Christmas (We had decided this when my sister got married) and luckily we have been able to do it. We had so much fun and it was freezing up there too!!!

Brady loved his farm house he got at Grandma and Grandpa Turko's house.


All of us at my Brother in laws parents house Christmas morning.

Proud Grandmas!!!



All of us got our parents a camera for Christmas,
so here my mom is discovering what it was!!


Brady playing at Grandma Turko's house Christmas Eve, I love this picture of his cute little outfit!! Also pay attention in most of the pictures of
(where's waldo??) It's more like where's Brady tractors, he loves them!



Grandma and Brady, christmas eve!! Where's the Tractors?
My mom got these little New Holland Tractors for him. These are the one's daddy drives out int he field!




Cute Mommy and her baby boy!! See the tractors?


Auntie loves her handsome nephew so much!!
Tractor?




Had to stop and refuel with his milk!!



Daddy and Brady!!



So when we got there, Brady found my boots and wanted to put them on!!


Brady loves his hockey sticks!!




Brady got a race car track for Christmas, so we were all betting on who's car would win!!
Where's the Tractor?

Tractor anyone?

Brady got a mini vaccum from grandma and grandpa, he loves to vaccum and help mommy out all the time!! He is such a big boy!!


helping some more, vaccuming for mommy!!

So brady got these cool little tub markers that you can write with while you take a bath, they were calling for me to come up stairs and see what brady did for me, this is what i found!!! I loved it!! Brady, auntie loves you too so much!!! Thanks Buddy!!



Brady is such a big helper, taras got his drill out to put together one of Brady's toys and brady thought that he was a big boy and wanted to put it together himself or at least help dad!!


It's amazing how independent he already is, wanting to do it on his own, he got a little drill for christmas, but he didn't want anything to do with that one, he wanted the real one. So smart!!

So Ryan and I got brady "Handy Manny" for Christmas!! He loves it, but here he decided he wanted to sit in it instead of fix the truck!! We were laughing so hard!!

"Handy Manning"

Brady got this huge CAT Truck!! He loves it!!


Christmas Morning!! Brady checking out all his stuff from Santa!!
Where's the tractor?

My Brother in law and sister got Brady the cutest "Cars" table along with a bunch of other things!! Tractor???

Tractor?? It is so funny!!


Here he is checking out his Black and Decker tool set!!! Tractor???


Brady with Santa on Christmas Eve!! He LOVES Santa Claus!! When he saw him, he walked right up to him and was looking at him, then Santa asked if he could carry him into the family room and brady was so excited to see that Santa pulled out a present for him!!
