Ice Ice Baby

Now that you are singing a little Vanilla Ice, let me tell you about something we did this weekend. Expanding our horizons, we ventured out to the Alabama hockey game. I like to call myself a hockey fan, although I haven't been in quite sometime... probably since high school when the Birmingham Bulls used to play at the Civic Center. I never understood the rules or really got into the game, but I thought it was pretty cool when they would fight. This night didn't disappoint in that department either. We had to bundle up... brr.. it's cold at the ice skating rink. I made a comment on the way in that I hope they have the heat on... Matt said, don't count on it.

Here's the team. Who knew AL had a hockey team?? I didn't until a few weeks ago and the place was packed. It was the last home game..there's always next year.

Look at this cuteness. So at half time they let the little peewee hockey team come out and play. Some of these boys couldn't have been more than 5 years old. They looked about like I do on skates.

Our buds, Danny and Casey, joined us for some fun.

Here we are towards the end.. Matt wants to go ahead and beat the crowd so we stop to watch it at the glass. Now, this is where the action is.

Up close and personal. This was right before 2 of the guys were slammed into the glass right in front of me and I nearly peed my pants and dropped the camera. I did let out a little yelp too, Matt moved a little further away from me, I guess so people wouldn't think we were together. Fun times at the ice rink.
