She Skates.

If you know Derek, then you probably know that he is a complete sports nut. It's hard to believe that he can remember random scores and point numbers from hockey games years and years past - and its not just limited to hockey but other sports as well. Ever since Alexis was young he has talked about being able to get her on the ice when she was old enough. Now she's not old enough yet to be taking lessons or playing hockey (obviously) but we took her this weekend to see what she thought about the ice. She loves watching hockey with Derek, and when we had to go vote awhile back there - I went to the arena to cast my vote taking little Lexi Lou with me. Once we were done there I saw some small children practising hockey and decided to take Alexis to check it out. She was so excited! I mean like screaming "Look Mommy Look!" and of course her favourite word "PUCK!!!".

So off we went to the local ice arena which isn't far from our house. Alexis was hesitant to get out there at first but once she saw Derek do a couple laps she was ready to go and try it out!
