<\/p>\n
JUst climbed in bed after a long cold, day.. I noticed it was 2 below zero (F) when we came in.. That didn’ tused to count as cold around here… but it’s cold enough for me..<\/p>\n

We had a great quick down to Western Mass for a snowboard event of Gabes\/ We had to be on the road by 6..\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It was a cute little place.. kinda like Bolton.. It was stil in the single digits most of the day.. but bluebird skies kept us form freezing completely.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We were down with Gabe’s freinds and teammates.. Here’s Dylan<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

and Gabe.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

He’re their friend Matt mid-rodeo<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

and dylan half way through something.. a flip of somekind<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

and gabe doign a nice backside .<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We had a picnic outside since inside was crowded and noisy.. the single digits weather made th food taste tat much better !<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We got back on the road home around 4 .. .. got home around 7, dropped, Gabe, Dylan and Matt.. Then Diane and I went over to Jen and Jim’s for the parent’s Winter Ball party.. All the kids were at the High School Winter Ball.. so the parents were getting together to do some partying of our own .. ‘our’.. I say.. They included us.. which is so wonderful. This would have been Sam’s Senior ball.. who would he have gone with ? what would he have worn ? .. There are so many of these milestones.. driver’s licenses, proms, finals,.. everything.. so bittersweet.. yet folks keep bringing us in.. it’s sweet and sad.. and we wouldn’t have it any other way. I like to think Sam’s partying somewhere tonight .. too.. <\/p>\n

Jen, Jen and Peggy arrive shortly after we did wiht pictures of the young couples.. They all looked so great and happy<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It was a great evening.. we talked about all the kids.. including Sam..\u00a0\u00a0 , drank, ate.. and drank some more..\u00a0\u00a0 a proper party…\u00a0<\/div>\n
One special treat tonight was Jen’s sand table..<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

she built it after seeing this video from ‘ukraines got talent’\u00a0 on youtube\n<\/div>\n
