Hockey Night in Canada!

We swore we wouldn't be a hockey family but with Matt instilling a love for hockey (and the Pittsburgh Penguins) and Simon learning how to skate we were doomed. Simon requested hockey as his winter activity so we signed him up for an Intro to Hockey session. The hockey is for ages 4 to 7, so Simon was on the younger side. I think this was ideal for him because he does not like to be last so he was really pushing himself to keep up. They worked those kids hard and by the end of it, Simon was sweaty and a lot better of a skater than when he hit the ice. We hoping he's as enthusiatic for the remainder of the session since we signed him up for the spring session too!

Simon dressed and ready to hit the ice.


Finally a stick - sadly no puck though.


Hockey swagger and style already.
