Ups and Downs

It's been a week of highs and lows across the board. From weather shifts to hockey games, it's definitely not been dull around here!

The week started off beautifully, with Tuesday warming up to 70 degrees. It was the light at the end of a long, cold tunnel! Ben and I made the 35-minute walk from our place to the cute Kensington neighborhood for some birthday drinks in honor of Almudena. We had all busted out our lightweight shirts, jackets, dresses, etc., and it was simply euphoric! Here we are celebrating Almu's b-day - Ben is such a lady's man!

Little did we know that Wednesday would bring several inches of SNOW - yikes! This could make a person schizophrenic! It's cold enough today that the snow has stuck around, but hopefully it will melt again by the end of the week, as things are expected to warm back up a bit.

Last night was also memorable, not only because of the snow, but because the Calgary Flames won game 4 of 7 in the playoffs against Chicago! We all made it out to a sports bar and the energy was so positive and intense. We are now 2 and 2 and hoping to watch the Flames go all the way!

Here's Ben enjoying the warm weather on Tuesday, and a photo of the same area less than 24 hours later!!
