The Book Thief

Life has been busy, but I've managed to get some light reading in. I just finished this book about a young German girl who's family hides a Jew, all narrated by death itself. It was pretty good. Pick it up if you are looking for something over the holidays.

Ice Ice Baby!

A couple weeks ago Chris and I went to an Eskimos Football game (I saved up my grocery store points and we got in for $10 bucks a piece:). It was a very cold night and we had just had a lot of snow, but that's not the reason this post is titled 'Ice Ice Baby'. Included in our game vs. Calgary (major rivalry) was a half time show with Vanilla Ice!! Woohoo. It was great! Well, the attendance at the game was poor, due to the weather, which made my singing along and dancing to the music very solo, but that's alright. Vanilla Ice performed 'Go Ninja, Go Ninja, Go' (probably not the title of the song) from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and referenced a couple times how he still loved those turtles. And of course he performed 'Ice, Ice, Baby'. It was fun.
The game was also really great. We were down in the first quarter, but came back to tie, and lost it literally in the last 4 seconds. Too bad, but makes for an exciting game to watch!
The classic hot dog picture.
And Chris' dog.
Vanilla Ice performing. They had this mini crowd around his mini stage. We were up pretty high, but could still see him.
Very cold, but having fun. It was a great date night!
