Silversticks SouthEastern Regional CHAMPIONS!!!

Can I just say that I am so proud of my little boy and his hockey team!! We spent this past weekend (Dec 5-7, 2009) in Hunstville, Alabama for the Southeastern regional tournament. Those boys played their little hearts out and brought home the prize!! They played a total of 4 games: Game 1 ended in a 1-1 tie. Game 2 we won 7-2. Game 3 we won 5-1. Game 4 (the Championship game) we won 7-1. Undefeated all weekend! Harrison had a total of 6 goals in 4 games! It was unbelievable!! After the game, they allowed us out on the ice to take pictures during the Awards Ceremony. They called each boy by name and they skated up to get their trophy. Then they asked for captains to come up to get the team trophy and banner. Coach Jason said for Harrison to be one of the 3 captains. So he went up and held the trophy up in the air...like the NHL players do when they win the Stanley Cup. We took lots of pictures before being kicked off the ice. But of course my camera died...yep... Mom of the Year!


The greatest part about it, they get to go to Canada to play in the National Championship in January.

New soccer pictures!

I took my "Mack-Daddy" camera to Harri's game this weekend and got some really good pictures of him in action! I am making a website for the team, so I will post them on there. In the mean time, here are a few of my faves!

Also, I just added a slide show to the bottom of this blog, so be sure to scroll all the way down for a view of Harrison's life in pictures!

A Hat Trick weekend!

Harrison had 3 hockey games and a soccer game this weekend. He would've had a second soccer game, but it has done nothing but rain in GA for the past 3 days! His soccer team won and he had 3 goals (a HAT TRICK)! His hockey team won 2 of the 3 games. The one they lost was 4-0, which is a step up from when they played them 3 weeks ago and lost 10-2. He scored 3 goals in the 2 winning hockey games as well...which means 2 more hat tricks! He is on fire this weekend! He got the game puck during the Saturday game and lots of positive comments from coaches and parents.

On a not-so-good note, he spent some time in the penalty box. He wasn't happy about it, but I thought it was pretty funny and had to get a quick pic!




Here are some pictures that I took of him in action: (He's #4)

3rd Grade here I come!

Harrison started 3rd grade 3 weeks ago......I know I am late posting this but we have been a little busy! Third grade has been more challenging than the previous years, which is good because he was always bored. Thankfully they are starting multiplication and cursive, something he has been ready to learn since he sees Brennan doing it. So far, we ♥ his teacher! She seems really fun and is interested in each child's progress.

In addition to homework, Harrison is also playing hockey and soccer. They are both travel teams and go through the Spring of 2010. He is on the Mite Jr. Thrasher team that plays out of the Town Center Ice Forum. They are the first Mite team to travel out of this arena. The season starts in a couple of weeks, but they have been practicing 4x per week for the last 3 weeks.

His soccer team is a U10 boys travel team. Jason decided to step up and coach this year. Their season officially starts Sept. 12 and they have practiced 2x per week for the month of August. Funny side note: the boys chose to name the team .............the Thrashers! Easy for us to remember!

Beach trip 2009

Harrison had fun when he could on his beach trip this year. Considering it was a softball tournament for Brennan, he had a pretty good time! When we weren't at a ballpark, he was constantly asking me, "Can we go to the pool (or beach) now?" He was such a good sport! Here are some pics of him trying to have fun:
