Congratulations to Trevor and Olivia Plouffe on their wedding day! Here's to a long and happy marriage to both of them.

Merry Christmas from Justin Morneau and his family! (Sorry but this image from his official Facebook page was too adorable not to share!)

Joe Nathan wearing a Cowboys jersey because of a lost bet (full story here.) Knowing that Nathan hates the Cowboys makes him inestimably cooler, in my eyes.
