One more time!!

This time it was R-dogs turn. The two of us headed down to Speedy Creek and he ended up in the A-final. They played two of the best games I have seen them play...and one of the worst.

It was a great time, even though I couldnt "indulge" because of the heavy medication I am on. (Still not rid of that dang cold). But he had a BLAST!!

C-man had a hockey tourney this past weekend in the stomping ground of Uncle G and Auntie D....it was great to see them, and the grandparents!! Although I dont think they played their very best, they did end up winning the A-side. Pretty pumped!!

Retzky, however, did not fair so well. They ended up losing 4-3 to a team that they should have easily handled. Not sure whats happening there...but they need to figure it out, and turn it around. This weekend we are off to Swift for a three dayer (nothing like a long tourney right before the holidays....yippeee)

Not sure whats happening with the youngest yet - DH is in charge of that...

ps...thanks to everyone who bought a ham from us...appreciate it!!

My boy...

As usual, we had hockey this weekend. The youngest was sorta all over the map, while my oldest was in town for a double header.

The first game was kinda a blow out. Not sure what happened...but we really didnt show up. The team we played has one of those kids on the team, that you know if they really wanted, someday they would be playing a very good calibre of hockey. The bigger the ice surface, the better for him.. I noticed some banter going on between the boys, so I asked him after the game what some of the chatter was about. He does tell me a lot of the time whats being said, and even though I have been known to use some choice words, the things these boys say - sometimes makes me blush. But, not MY BOY. He says to me....(I hope he doesnt read this) ...this is what I said mom.

They matched up in the face off circle and Retzky says to him " Hey...your grandma lives just down the street from me!"

Amazing kid says "UH, HUH?"

So, my boys says again.....slower this time " Hey...your grandma lives just right down the street from me"...

AARRRGGHHH...no killer instinct, no rough and tough...gotta win...big game.

But-trying to make a new friend. YIKES!!

ps....second day, we came back from a 4 lead deficiet in the third to tie it up. Retzky made up for it, with a nice goal. (Dont think he chatted it up with him that game!!)

Happy Birthday KK!!

Happy Birthday Niecey....wonderful spunky girl who had the best line of the summer. "So, this is what you do when the boat runs out of gas??!!"
