Andrew's Final Hockey Game

On Sunday night, I took Tommy to his first hockey game which also happens to be Andrew's last (or so he thinks).

 Mommy and Tommy watching from the bleachers.

 There's Andrew in the white jersey.

 Number 4 is definitely Andrew but that is not his last name on the jersey.  The other team wore dark blue so their team had to make do with spare jerseys.

 Look at him go!! Andrew is quite the speed racer on skates these days.

 Andrew's team won 3 to 1!! YEAH!

 Tommy was very entertained even though he was completely bundled up.  He was wearing his blackhawks helmet hat that we got for him in Chicago on our babymoon.  A little boy came over and said I like his hat because I like the blackhawks.  Tommy smiled so the kid kept saying BLACKHAWKS BLACKHAWKS BLACKHAWKS trying to make him smile.  Then a hockey player came over and sat on the bleacher (from his accent you could tell he was from Canada), he got into the game and said, "Oh he likes the blackhawks does he? How about Vancouver? VANCOUVER??" (Only it sounded more like Vancoovah).  Tommy didn't smile.  He was disappointed but Tommy is a loyal sports fan.  He smiles for no other teams.  :)

 Super Sports Star Dad came over to us after the game.  Tommy was excited.

 Here's spectator Tommy chillin' in the stands with a blanket to keep him warm.

 Once we left the rink, the rest of the Ice Box is a hot muggy mess so I had to start stripping Tommy down immediately.  He kept the hat on for a little while though.

 While waiting for Andrew, we played some arcade games.  There was a great semi truck driving game that Tommy loved steering the steering wheel.  (Ew, just imagine the germs on that wheel. Probably hasn't been cleaned for 20-odd years. BLECH.)

 We also played THE CLAW!!!

Tommy really enjoyed his hockey time.  I snapped a quick pic before we headed home.  He's such a cute hockey fan in his Mastodon shirt.  Dad is so proud of his little metal lovin' kiddo... as Tommy is proud of his hockey playin' dad.
