Elise's Date

Craig was the star of the evening on this daddy/daughter date with Elise. It was an evening in Lake Placid, NY (we were at the cabin), and the new Hannah Montana movie! There were plenty of girls and moms at the show and a couple of dad's like Craig, who were complimented as being an "awesome" dad for taking their daughters to see this movie! Craig would do it again if in a heart beat! They stopped at Subway on the way home and got in really late - around 11:00 p.m.

Nika's Date

Craig gets to go to one hockey game a so often sponsored by his work. The first year Craig and I went, the 2nd year we gave our tickets to a friend, and this year, we felt that Nika was big enough to go on a late night date with her daddy. She was completely excited!

They left to buckets of rain and rode the train into downtown Montreal. She had a great time, but was overwhelmed by the intensity of it all. People do not take their hockey for granted here, and were very load - a little too loud for Nika. They left early and got some souvenirs before they left. She even went into the girls bathroom all by herself - seriously - what a big girl!

Veronika made sure not to forget her sister and got her this #1 finger that they promptly made into some silly dance worth recording - but I didn't have it on hand!
