On Saturday night, we went to E & T's house to watch some University of Minnesota Hockey. They have DirectTV and are able to watch Minnesota hockey every week. We are a little jealous. Way back when E and Stephen were both still PhD students at the UofM, each year we'd get season tickets for the games (actually, I think we split season tickets the first year with E & T because we could not afford them on our own). Anyway, it was always great fun going to Mariucci Arena to watch the Gophers play and watching them last night in E&T's family room, 1600 miles away, was still a lot of fun! BTW, the Gophers beat the St. Cloud State Huskies 8-6. We definitely were not ripped off any goals that game.

Today we had a super sunny and WARM day! It got up to 65 degrees at my house. I loved it! I turned off the heat and opened the front and back doors and let the fresh air in. It was nice.

The kids have tomorrow off school for MLK day. We haven't any plans though I understand there is more sunshine in the forecast so maybe we can do something outside! Hurray!
