We had a great time at the ATC Hockey Tourney this year. It was fun to go back to Minnesota, but it was much colder than the last time we were there! When we arrived at the airport, it was about 12 degrees at noon and warmed all the way up to 18 that day. We arrived on a Monday and played hockey Tuesday thru Friday. John scored the first goal of the tourney, about 1 minute in to the first game. Albuquerque won that game 8-2. The standings are based on a 10 points per game system. 1 point for first goal, 2 points for each period won, 2 points for the game, 1 point for last goal. Albuquerque took all of the points for that game, but went downhill from there. Abq finished with only 15 points, but was 4th out of 6th in the division. It really was a lot of fun. Here is a picture of our team, for that day. There were different players almost everyday.
Here we are on picture day! The rink was very nice. It was pretty new and had 8 sheets of ice for hockey.
There is John! 
We went to a high school hockey game, it was to see who would go to their playoffs. It was at the University of Minnesota and it was packed! They estimated over 12,000 people were there to watch the game, it was crazy! It was neat because there was a team from Eden Prarie (which is where we lived) that we watched play and they won! Both of the teams brought their bands to play as well.
Here is our gang, Kellie, Mark, Jonah and Thedra. We found seats about 5 rows behind the net. Those kids were amazing skaters!! It was really fun to watch.
