Our Future Hockey Star!

I realize that I have already updated family and friends BUT I absolutely had to update today!!!  Lukey has been accepted in The Future Hockey Stars on Ice Program, there was never a doubt in our minds that there would not be a positive outcome for this particular day-BUT there was a sense of relief when the coaches said YES we do accept him into the program!  WOOHOO!  I truly was proud of him today, he has worked extremely hard for this day.  He will learn the skills, fundamentals of playing hockey in the first 40 minutes of class, and have face offs the last 20 minutes of class.  He looked SO darn cute with all his hockey gear on, minus the shoulder pads, b/c we have yet to get them.  The shoulder pads are optional at this age.  Ron tells me it will help his Jersey to fit better, lets hope so :)  He is one of, if not the smallest child on the ice, and even though he is tiny, its hard to believe at times that he is just 4 years old.  He was given a Jersey and it was the smallest they had and it still came down past his knees, almost shin length :)  SO ADORABLE!!!

Classic Lukey...he came off the ice saying to Ron and I, "I SO HUNGRY"!  BUT and this takes the cake,
he wants a pretzel from the snack bar, and that he wants to go back out on the ice for public skate time b/c a friend of his is there.  He did indeed go back out on to the ice and proceeds to play "tag" with this friend for over an hour!  He came off the ice with his little cheeks incredibly chapped and red but he said, "Mommy that was a lot of fun"!

Love & HUGS,
Jenny, Ron, Ryan, and Lukey :)
