Teddy bear toss 2008

Considering it has been forever since I posted something I figured I should get my act in gear. I've been really busy lately making our christmas gifts. My goal was to not purchase anything, I failed however because I couldn't come up with anything to make Jacob so I settled for something that would take his mind of the up coming surgery. Much crafty has been going on in the Oxrieder household, plus wrapping, boxing and shipping gifts has been a project, and of course I can't post any of it here because the family will see what they are getting. Do you see my dilemma? Still no excuse not to post something heh?

Last night we went out and had Thai food (first time for the parents). They did splendidly, according to dad's friend Ron, dad "grew tits and pussied out".... ( he had sweet and sour chicken ). He was told to have Thai Peanut noodle by Ron's wife..... ah he was ribbed for that one. Anyway, after our Thai food adventures we went to a hockey game. My parents being season ticket holders they let us know when the "teddy bear toss" was. Everyone brings teddy's/ stuffed animals of some sort, when the Chiefs score a goal everyone throws the "teddy's" onto the ice. They toys are then collected by toys for tots and given to kids and hospitals etc... I forgot my camera but some lovely person remembered there's and I am going to use there video to show you what it looks like. It really is very cool, and inspiring that so many people donate toys.
