MW update and hockey photos

I wanted to quickly post a photo of an update of MW (as promised) but, please note, I didn't get as far as I had hoped before posting an update. Yesterday I spent the morning taking down the Christmas decorations and tree and vacuuming up the needles from the old fake tree, the afternoon at Matthew's championship hockey game (which they, unfortunately lost in 3 OTs) and just getting ready for the end of the holiday break (the boys started school today and I went back to work). But here is MW...

It is coming along...but didn't get as much done as I wanted over the weekend. I have started some exchange stitching projects and also had the hockey tournament. And speaking of tournament, I thought I would share some photos we purchased and scanned in...

Here is Matthew (younger son) - various photos from the Winter Classic Tournament in San Jose, CA



 
And the best photos...it is a 2-photo series where Matthew was working hard to take the puck away from the opposing team by lifting his stick away from the puck...and the one below it shows Matthew successful in stealing the puck away, turning to try and stuff the puck in the net. Unfortunately, the goalie (whose family is good friends of ours) stopped it.



We are definitely proud of Matthew, for he really worked his tail off the whole tournament! Actually the whole team played very well...nevertheless, after the 3 Overtimes in the championship game, they lost. Oh well...there is alway another game and another tournament!

Have a good week everyone and remember...
Live, Love, Laugh and Stitch often! Lisa

Great job on MW! I need to update too but can't get a good pic at night. I finished the blue and the white motif. Moved to the big flower one. I have to set aside MW to do some gift stitching. =(

Great photos of Matthew!!

Awesome pictures Lisa! I wonder if my sister took them? I know she was "on duty" for a tournament over New Years weekend!
