It's a Family Game



Alex scored his first goal last night in a game against Deep River. 


We drove the hour and a half, on icy roads, all for hockey. This is all very new to us since this is Alex's first year of minor hockey but it has been one of the best experiences we have had as a family.  He is thoroughly enjoying it, making new friends and he is improving from every game and practice. We travel all over the Ottawa Valley from state-of-the-art rinks to the ones that are small and tired. We have all made new friends (Grace included) and we can be found cheering loudly together. It takes up quite a bit of our time and our girls are spending a lot of time as rink rats but despite all of that, we wouldn't change it for the world. 
Alex's first goal was exciting but the best thing is that he is having so much fun!  A true Canadian experience that we hope continues.
