Battle Scars

This week I got my first hockey injury. I was playing floor hockey at school when some kids whacked me in the chin! I got opened up like a real hockey player. Dad says I should probably have gotten stitches but I was too tough, I didn't even cry.

To balance things out I promptly came home and through a Build-A-Bear shoes at Macsen and gave him a bloody fat lip.

That's how I role.

Grace

A classic sequence from my last day of the hockey session.


How are you doing Brenden?


Faceplant!
At least I could stay on my feet!

Mr. Hockey

On Friday we had a real hockey game against the hacks from neighboring Fond Du Lac. We had referrees and everything!

Here's me listening to the coach before our next shift. I think he was telling us to take out their best player but I don't remember. The Fond Du Lac parents were quite crazy. Goals scored by their team resulted in the whole Fond Du Lac section jumping in the air and doing fist pumps replicated by the team on the ice. Our fans were slightly more restrained.

Here's me battling for the puck after the face-off. As you can see I was pretty much the smallest guy on the team. I'm only five and I was playing against eleven year olds. How I got on this team for the scrimmage I am not quite sure. It didn't help that the game went until 8:30 PM. I am usually asleep at 7:30 PM!


After the game they handed out drinks, granola bars, and candy. It was awesome.

They even gave me my first hockey award! I can't wait to put it up in my room! Afterwards I was really exhausted and fell asleep sitting on mom's lap.

Slow Start

Just realized that we have not posted much for a while. I guess we're still recovering from the holidays.

Nana and Papa left last week after coming up mid-January. Grandpa, Uncle Paul, Gunnar, and Auntie were up the week after Christmas.

Lots of visitors!

I've started taking hockey lessons at the YMCA in Oshkosh. I skate twice a week and I love it. Macs likes to watch and cause trouble in the stands.

I'm also in swimming lessons and yesterday mom took Macs and me to the pool and we didn't want to leave! Dad was in Wausau getting beat up in a hockey tournement.
