Jamboree in Woodbury

Last week was Super Hero week at preschool and each kid was send home with a cape to decorate.  They were to use their imagination to come up with a super hero they wanted to be.  I had to give Meredith a few suggestions but she decided she wanted to be a hockey hero.  Her power was that she could make anyone score a goal.  Daddy helped her decorate it with hockey tape.  He did the laces and cut the tape, but I think Meredith did the rest. 

She's called Puck Magic.  Those are two hockey sticks in the center, her #15 on the bottom left, a skate on the bottom middle, and a net with a goal light on the bottom right.  

Daddy gave it a finishing touch with a Mike Modano hockey card.  

Friday night was our night to skate at the Jamboree in Woodbury.  This was the cute little sign welcoming us.  Her name is in the upper left.  

 She was very excited.  She scored 2 goals in the wrong net.  She was so excited after the first one that she threw her arms up in the air.  We were laughing.  She said that she "almost scored 3 goals in the right net".   She's still at an age where she is excited about us.  She kept waving to us.  She even waved so much that as she was skating onto the ice, her gloves fell off.  I'm glad she really seems to like playing hockey.  


Poor Anna has been sick all week but we dragged her with us.  I finally took her to the doctor on Thursday because she wasn't getting better and it turns out both of her ears are infected.  "Raging" according to the doctor.  Poor girl.    She is on the mend though.  

Future hockey player?
