Curtis in Goal and Grandpa O's Birthday

Curtis was more than thrilled to have his turn at goal this week. We were optimistic when the equipment seemed to be about 4 sizes too big for him as he had such a positive attitude.

Can you see the grin on his face...

He started out OK...
But then it was fall after fall after fall & poor Curtis got a whole new appreciation for what a turtle goes through.

Coach was on constant watch to help him back up.

He did his best but part way through the game, he realized the equipment was hurting him and just too difficult so he packed it in. It wasn't all bad as the other team didn't have a goalie either so it kind of helped even things out. All in all I think they may have still won but no one knows for sure.

Then we were off to Mandarin to celebrate Grandpa O's Birthday with the family.

Here is Spencer enjoying what everyone comes to the Mandarin for...the lemons!

Is that Grandpa in amazement that they are bringing him more food...his Birthday dessert?!!Hope you had a great birthday Grandpa (even if Saskatchewan won the Grey Cup)!
