Britton's hockey debute and finale

The Steelhead's mascot "Blue" visited the kids while they were waiting to go onto the ice.

Tonight was Britton's last hockey practice and he had a last minute opportunity to play a Mighty Might game during a Steelhead's hockey game. During one of the period breaks, the Mighty Mights play a five minute game in the arena. It was a packed house too. Britton did a great job. It is something he's always wanted to do, and it was a great way to finish off his hockey playing days.

Yesterday we took Britton skiing for the second time and he did so awesome! He rode one of the bigger chair lifts and we took him on 3 different runs on the big hill. He figured out his turns really well and now he really wants to use poles. He steals mine when we get to the bottom of the hill. It's been so much fun teaching him how to ski! It helps that he's a fast learner.
