A "Mighty" New Year's


This year for the Stoddard Family Tradition of a movie marathon New Year's Eve Party is The Mighty Ducks! I remember watching all these movies growing up but the younger siblings haven't seen them all the way through.












 We started off watching the first one filled with great lines such as: " Cakeeater, Our last coach hurt his arm, ( heartattack), and the beginning of the flying V and the oreo line. =) After that we went ice skating till our feet hurt. 


Once we got home we watched the 2nd one which was.....hard to get through since it was so cheesy.However, we did learn that rollerblading through the mall is totally legal.?  But we made it and then went to play broomstick hockey at the church. We had a fun arrangement of sticks, one hockey stick, two brooms and two lacrosse sticks. We had fun and Natalie felt like she was playing Qudditch being on her rollerblades and with a broom. =)


I love how Ben is in the air in the bottom one. Then we had dinner and watched the 3rd. Which is actually pretty good. Something about 2 movies some are just terrible. 


Natalie didn't quite make it to midnight. 


Toasting in the New Year!

It was a fun day with lots of laughs and fun memories. We look forward to the New Year to new adventures and always finding ways to improve ourselves.

  1. Alaina- I have never heard of such a fun New years tradition! That is such a great idea and I love that you paired it with activities that went along with the movies. What a fun family! Miss you at work!
