Bronco Family Game

The Broncos played a fun Kids vs. Family game this morning. Phil put on some skates, shin pads, and a helmet and took to the ice. There were several dads thay knew how to play and also some older siblings that played for the family team. Will reffed with another sibling. It was a lot of fun for everyone!

Happy New Year!

We decided to stay in again this New Years Eve.  We ordered pizza and watched the Michigan football game.  We also did another “Maguran Family NYE Game Night.”  We had a tournament set up and played: dome hockey, foosball, darts, hockey sauce, shuffleboard and the ring game.  First and second place trophies were awarded for each activity and then the overall winner got a bigger trophy.  Phil was our overall winter this year but we all did come away with a trophy - including me (second place darts).  I didn’t win anything last year.  

Merry Christmas!

The boys set their alarm clocks and woke us up at 6:30 to start our Christmas Day festivities.  We had our traditional breakfast of cinnamon rolls and bacon while the boys took in all the gifts under the tree.  We always open our stockings first and the boys were excited about their new books, lotto tickets, candy cane spoons, batting gloves, bug zapper racquets, among other things.  Then we moved on to gifts and slowly opened them.  We didn’t finish up until 11:30 or so.  Since it was 50 degrees out, we walked to the park so the boys could try out their new golf clubs.  We played a new board game in the afternoon, played knee hockey, and watched Elf before bed. 

 

Christmas Eve

We had a very fun Christmas Eve.  We drove up to Grand Rapids and celebrated with Grandma, Aunt Mara, Uncle Ken, Katie and Will.  We had good food and drinks, opened gifts, and played a few games (Bingo and Saran Wrap Ball).  Then we went to Grandma’s house to open more gifts.  When we got home, the boys played with their new street hockey sticks and ring game before watching “A Charlie Brown Christmas.”  Then we put out cookies for Santa before sending them off to bed.

 

Christmas Traditions

We checked off the final items on our “Christmas Traditions” list.  The boys had their snowman breakfast, we drove around to see Christmas lights (and used fun 3D glasses), and baked/decorated gingerbread cookies.
