Hockey Season Wrap Up

Just a little wrap up of the hockey season-- I know most of you aren't that interested in hockey, so here's a story in pictures:
We finally got the cinnamon sugar pretzel we'd been dying for since the beginning of the season. Why did it take us so long?? We decided we could only get it between periods if they were winning, and for some reason the concession stand was always out by then. But it was beyond delicious, and worth the wait.
I made bear mittens to match my bear hat-- they're great for pounding against the glass. The first time I wore them, we arrived insanely early, and came across Colin Greening (captain) playing soccer in the hallway, and Patrick Kennedy sitting in the stands listening to his ipod. I think they were lucky. By the way, for you bear hat skeptics, I have already made an sold one, and have orders for several more.
Hillary in her jersey (a birthday gift from me), getting ready for the game. It rained all the way there, and we spent the game soaked and cold, but still happy.

We said goodbye to 5 great players on senior night. Because name/number/position of each player would be boring, I'll add an interesting tidbit for each and let you draw the conclusions. #15: Captain and forward Colin Greening (great leader), #24: Forward Brendon Nash (always smiles), #5: defenseman Justin Krueger (danced to the German anthem), #28: Defensive forward Joe Scali (scrappy player, very Italian), and #30: Goalie Ben Scrivens (best goalie ever, loves the fans).Hillary caught a puck tossed out at the end of the period-- she made a very impressive pounce for it and beat out the competition. She then got it signed by Scrivens, the goalie.
