Last night Wade's boss invited us to a silent auction for his son's hockey team. Their daughter babysat for Ethan again (this time we put Ethan to bed before we left so it went a little smoother). We had a fun evening with some of Wade's coworkers, bidding on the auction items and we even won a couple small things. Although we didn't have much interest in the raffles for signed hockey jersey's or hockey tickets, the huge "liquor basket" did catch our eye. We purchased $20 worth of raffle tickets and then proceeded to tell everyone how we had an empty liquor cabinet since we didn't want to deal with bringing what we had across the border. Wade saw them drawing in the corner and watched the guy calling the cell number. He was holding his phone waiting for it to ring and it did! The basket ended up having 13 bottles of wine, 1 large bottle of wine, 2 bottles of champagne, and a bottle each of rum, vodka, gin, and sambuca. Needless to say our liquor cabinet is no longer empty and we better find some friends to invite over because Wade and I don't need to drink all this ourselves.
