Ty Does It Again!
First, let me say that it’s been a LONG time coming. This is the child who cried for an hour every Saturday, for 10 WEEKS straight when he was learning how to skate. He was 3 years old. The coach assured me that I wasn’t doing permanent damage by making him continue to learn to [...]
Hockey Update
Well, with only two weeks left in our season, I have to say that it’s turned out to be the best season of hockey so far! Our team is in first place, and really, we’re the only team out there that actually plays like a team. The other teams rely on ONE superstar on their [...]
Mites Hockey: Week 9
I know I haven’t blogged about the boys’ hockey games in a couple of weeks, but honestly, there hasn’t been anything NEW to report. While I find their games fun, I realize that not everyone does, and unless there’s something new to report, then it’s kind of boring. Well…. I have something NEW to report! [...]
Mites Hockey: Week 6
The Flames took on the Bruins this week, and what an exciting game it was! The game ended in a tie (7 – 7). My camera battery died, so no pictures this week. Cam had a few great plays (unfortunately, none ended up in goals), and he and his linemate were really clicking! Ty is [...]
Mites Hockey: Week 4/5
I keep forgetting to update the progress of the boys’ season! Let’s see…since I last posted, we’ve lost one, won one, and tied one. So far, their season is better than the Florida Panthers…of course, that’s not saying much, is it? Here are some pictures: I’ll have more pictures up soon.
Mites Hockey: Week 3
Flames vs. Ducks Today’s game was filled with action and excitement! While the Flames didn’t win this one (final score: 8 – 9), the kids put forth a lot of effort. Ty did a little better today, but he’s still learning the game and figuring out where he’s supposed to be. Cam had an assist [...]
Mites Hockey: Week 2
The boys are sick. They missed practice on Friday night. However, they seemed like they were feeling a bit better Saturday, so they played in the game against the Ducks. The coach had Cam playing Defense again. Cam absolutely HATES playing defense. You can see his shoulders slump and the love for the game go [...]

Last night the boys found out that they were on the same team this season, and that team is the FLAMES. While I am generally NOT a fan of the Flames, I will be the loudest Flames fan ever for at least the next few months. So today kicked off our first official game of [...]

Just a quick post about today’s hockey game. Camden had his first multi-goal game today! One of his goals was from a penalty shot. He had two penalty shots, and scored on one, so that makes him 1/2 on penalty shots. He was really pulling out every ounce of energy toward the end of the [...]

Last Saturday was Ty’s very first hockey game. Scott and I were SO worried about how he would do. This is a child who has taken Hockey 101 classes for two years and still hasn’t mastered skating back and forth around the cones (the most basic hockey drill). Nonetheless, we dressed him in Cam’s yellow [...]
