Hockey

This one goes out to Mike Werkheiser and Kim Torgerson (our hockey playing friends from STL).

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do." When in Canada, go watch hockey. Tonight we tried to be as Canadian as possible and went to support the Dalhousie (pronounced Dal-how-zee) Tigers men's hockey team. Dalhousie is the university we're working at right now. Unfortunately, they lost, but it was a close game, and we had a good time. The funniest moment of the night was the very beginning when we all rose for the national anthem, and Keri immediately put her hand over her heart expecting to hear, "Oh say can you see". Hmmm... We looked at each other and laughed when a different song started! Keri started to sing along to "Oh Canada" (Ruth-remember rehearsing it in our dorm room for our Canadian friend freshman year at Calvin?!), but CJ promptly told her that it's "treasonous" to sing along to another country's anthem. The other highlight of the evening for Keri was the Zamboni as it's one of her life aspirations to ride/drive one someday (you always taught me to aim high mom and dad!).


REALLY excited about the Zamboni
