Paul was given 3 seats to a Tuesday night Leafs game, so naturally our first thought was it was a perfect opportunity to take the boys to their first game. Adam and Michael were so excited, Michael asked every day for about a week if it was time to go to hockey! They all piled into the truck and headed to Toronto (I, of course, was left at home with David, who was battling a double ear infection and terrible cough), calling me on the way to let me know that they were on the road and sounding like they were bouncing off the walls of the truck! They got there and had to stop in at the gift shop, Adam purchasing a foam finger and Michael getting yet another mini hockey stick (it was either that or a pink puck...not hard to figure out why Paul went with the stick). Adam got some pictures during warm up, and during intermission the boys got their tickets signed by Walter Gretzky, whose seat was just down from theirs. The Leafs won the game 3-1 over Columbus, and the boys thought that was great. Overall it was an awesome evening for them, a great first experience at an NHL game.
