Yesterday was a busy but really fun day for the Eckleys! The whole weekend was going to be really busy but a couple of things got cancelled because of the snow but that was a good thing so we could focus on what we had to do!
Saturday morning I helped host a baby shower for my best friend LeeAnn! We are so excited that baby Paige is going to be here in a few short weeks. When Brad and LeeAnn told us they were pregnant way back in June the first thing I started thinking about was planning the baby shower!!! I started planning in August. It was great to work with all LeeAnn's friends to plan the best shower ever. Everything looked so pretty and the snow provided a great backdrop for the shower. LeeAnn got some awesome gifts. Baby Paige is ready to come now!! I hope LeeAnn had as much fun at the shower as we did planning and putting it all together. Here are a few pictures from the shower...

Saturday night Ben and Matt went to the Havoc hockey game. It was a game that supported the NICU at HH. During the week Kate was in the NICU, we would stand in the hall waiting to go back to the unit to see her and look at the hockey jerseys that hang on the wall. Matt and I said that we would go to the game this year and start attending the events that support the NICU after our wonderful experience there. So Saturday was the big day. It was too cold to take Miss Kate so I stayed home but Ben and Matt went with Opa and Mema. Ben had been looking forward to it all week. Every morning he would wake up and ask "hockey game today?" He had a blast at the game. He loves to watch sports so we knew he would love it! 
The game - the players wore special jerseys that were auctioned off after the game to support the NICU.

As you can see it was a busy day for us but full of fun times and good memories!! Now on to the week! Hopefully it is going to warm up some.
