Yay Avalanche! I think almost everyone I know is pretty excited to see the Avalanche make their way to the Stanley Cup. But I also like to do things that seem a bit “rebellious” and out of the ordinary – which is why I took my kids ice skating in the middle of summer. And yes, we go for ice cream in the middle of winter – and we do also celebrate National Ice Cream Day in July…come to think of it, I think we could celebrate ice cream any day – and we may celebrate an Av’s win with ice cream. Do you have some fun upside-down traditions with your family too?
