Wonderful weekend of hockey

After watching Ethan's Award Ceremony, we came home and Jason and I loaded the Suburban. Yes, LOADED. I love having so much room. Then we picked up Ethan from school, and hit the road for Sheridan. Again, we had no ice at our rink this weekend, so our team set up a set of games against the Sheridan teams. After dinner, Jason and I asked Joe if he minded staying with the boys while they slept, and we went to see Alice in Wonderland. Because it is Sheridan, the movie was not in 3D. However, we could have went to watch paint dry as far as I was concerned, because I am just grateful for ANY time out, alone, together. Ethan's first game was at 8:00am on Saturday. We couldn't have ordered better weather. It was an absolutely beautiful day to be outside, and watching Ethan play hockey. He played out for 2 full ice games, and they tied the first and won the second, and then he played goalie for one 1/2 ice game. Not only did they WIN, it was Ethan's first SHUT-OUT as goalie! Believe me, he was walking tall, all 44 inches of him. After a long morning of hockey, we went out to celebrate Ethan's shut-out with one of the other families. We went back to Joe's and rested for a little while, and then we went to Chris' parents house and let Ethan and Tyler shoot the BB gun for a little bit before dinner. By bedtime, we were all exhausted. It was such a great weekend, everyone had a fun time.

Gettin' geared up to play goalie.
He even got to borrow a real goalie helmet. He was ready.

Lucky for you, Jason has gotten pretty good at putting movies together, so here are some highlights from Ethan's games.
