Luke as Goalie, Crazy Hair, and Finn

Crazy Hair Day at school.  The hair dye didn't show up very well in Luke's hair so we had a last second rearranging.  Aiden opted to wear a wig rather than mess with the dye which felt like gum in their hair!

Finn and his cheesy smile

Luke was so excited to be a goalie in the fist game of their team scrimmage.  Finn enjoyed handing Luke his equipment piece by piece.

Although John and I are not sure we are ready to sign Luke up to be a full-time goalie at the age of eight, he does enjoy it and he is very good at it.  There are only a handful of kids who like to play goalie at Luke's age so teams are always recruiting someone.  It is certainly not an easy job on many levels, but Luke has the clear advantage of being quite a bit taller and bigger than most of his peers.  He practice playing goalie all the time in the driveway and is always eager to volunteer to put on the pads for games.  He played over the weekend for his teams first scrimmage and did very well and also had a lot of fun.  Way to go Luke!

Looks like we may get some pretty cold weather this weekend, but until then we are still enjoying the lack of snow and the warmer than average temperatures in November.
