Nice work guys!  Second place finish

Luke's AAA team played in the Stars and Stripes tournament over the weekend.  It was a busy weekend for us with five hockey games in three days.  We faced some very good competition from Minnesota, Wisconsin, California, and Colorado.  The boys played hard the entire time and really improved as a team.  We ended up a little short and finished in second place which was a little hard for these competitive boys, but it was a great finish overall.  Luke received the player of the game award for one of his games in net and got to experience his first shoot out (thankfully, he won the shoot out, but John and I might never recover).  It was a great weekend and we are excited for a break and the final two tournaments in August.  Only two more tournaments left for us this spring for Aiden and Liam.......

In other news, Aiden had his first machine pitch baseball game of the season and really enjoyed it.  They are keeping stats this time and counting strikes and runs, so its a bit more like "real" baseball.  He has several friends on the team and is really excited about the upcoming season.
