In the time that Daniel picked the game that he wanted to attend and the night of the game (November 1st, 2007) Curtis signed up for the Onoway Curling Club to take part in the Men's curling. On the 30th we found out that his 1st game was scheduled for November 1st so, this meant that we had an extra ticket for the hockey game. Daniel decided that he would like to ask his new bus mate if he would like to go. Bryce was, of course, eager to attend and came along with Daniel, Claire and I for an evening of entertainment. Oh, btw, we watched the Edmonton Oil Kings beat the Everett Silver Tips 3 to 1.
When we entered Rexall Place, the kids were happy to see that the game was centered around a rodeo theme to raise money for a cowboy trust fund. The kids got to rope a pretend bull and the also got to spin a roulette wheel that would either give you the chance to win a tattoo, blue hair or red hair!! Claire won blue hair and Danie, as you can see, won red hair. Bryce got the tattoo!
Just look at the delicious as well as nutritious pre-game supper that was enjoyed by everyone. I had a cup of coffee and waited for Claire to get full. She always orders too much (sigh).
Halfway through the game I was abandoned for the possible chance to appear on the Jumbotron. I enjoyed the second half all by myself. No, seriously, it was nice, I could watch the game! Alas they did not get on the Jumbotron. Oh well, next time.
A great time was had by all and we hope to go back very soon.

They look so grown up at this game. Just like some of the kids I see at the games here. And the ONLY reason you beat the Everett Silver tips is beacause they were tired from the long road trip ( at least that must be it).
WHATEVER!!! We are hoping to go and watch them beat Seattle next week!
