Our Trip to Duluth

The ice along the shores of Lake Superior in Duluth

The town of Duluth is very cute.  We stayed int he downtown area so had several fun amenities within walking distance.

Unwrapping the ball.  There are various prizes inside the ball of saran wrap and the boys took turns unwrapping it until their turn was up.

Announcing the names of players
We had a very busy weekend packed full of hockey and too many other activities to count with Luke and Liam Squirt hockey team.  The team had a wonderful time and the parents enjoyed the time as well.  We have a great team of parents and kids and have been fortunate that everyone meshes well together.  The siblings hung out all weekend together as well so there was never a dull moment.  The boys spent their free time swimming in the hotel pool, playing knee hockey, video games, and other team building games.

We won our first three games and our team advanced to the championship game, but unfortunately we lost and came in second place.  The first place team was from Thunder Bay in Ontario, Canada and definitely knew a thing or two about hockey.  Our team didn't play well in the final game as the boys looked tired and much slower than normal.  Too many fun events prior to the game, I guess!  Nonetheless, they played hard all weekend and learned a lot.

Go Squirt B1 GOLD!!!
