Game on!




Well, we just finished with a very eventful weekend. Connor had his first Squirt B hockey tournament of the season in Rochester. To go along with that was a very nasty blizzard. Blizzard or not, hockey continued. The weekend started with a Friday night game for Connor's team against another Rochester team. Our team came out on top 3-1. On Saturday as the snow was falling heavily, we played at 10 a.m. against Osseo Maple Grove and won 9-1. Later that afternoon at 3 p.m. we played St. Francis and won 5-2. That set us up for an 8 a.m. game as second seed in the tournament, and we played another Rochester team and came out on top of that game 3-1 in which Connor scored a goal. That took us to the Championship game of the tournament. Again, we faced yet another Rochester team. Unfortunately, the other team came out on top ending with a score of 3-1. We proudly took 2nd place in the tournament that included 12 Squirt B teams. What a finish! Thankfully we made it to those games on Sunday with the help of a neighbor with 4 wheel drive. Our streets did not get plowed until 1 p.m. that afternoon. It was a wonderful and busy weekend at the arena.

Be my Valentine...

I was helping out in Cody's class for Valentine's Day yesterday. It is so cute to see how excited the kids are to share their Valentine's with one another. Of course a lot of the excitement has to do with the candy that usually comes with it. As the class was listening to the story of Valentine's Day that was being read by the teacher, a little girl came over from the other classroom to ask if Cody was there. I told her yes and she proceeded to give me a Valentine for him. When I realized who it was (it happened to be a girl he has talked about), I quickly said hi and told her I am Cody's mom. She said hi back and said nice to meet you

Still got a chance...

Last week Cody and I had gone shopping. As we were going through the checkout lane he noticed a magazine with Carrie Underwood in her wedding dress on the front cover. He loves Carrie Underwood and even drew hearts all around her picture of one of my magazines. He asked "Mom, did she get married?" I answered "Yes." Right away he said "Do you think they will break up soon?" I told him that if she did break up with him, she likes hockey players so he still has a chance. He said "Good!"

Uh oh!

Well, I was hoping this day wouldn't come this early, but today I received a call from school. Mr. Goetz, the school administrator, told me that he had Cody in his office along with another boy from Cody's class. Apparently, Cody's teacher asked Mr. Goetz to talk to the boys regarding their behavior. They had been shoving and hitting each other so the teacher decided they should be taken aside to make sure they know the rules. We will see what Cody's take is on this when we talk to him about it this evening...stay tuned.
