First Ice Skating Adventure


This weekend was Michael's birthday and we decided to spend the weekend together as a family. This ended up being a great chance to take Alexei out on his first skate today. He was of course dressed in a hockey jersey and an Ovechkin one at that!

After the skate we decided to go and measure him for hockey skates. Since he is only a size 7 in hockey size, size 8.5 in shoe size we had to order them SO his BAUER skates are on the way!

Within 2 minutes of sitting him down and lacing them up, a hockey coach came up to him from the Seattle Hockey Association and asked if he would be interested in the beginners hockey games/practices this summer. AWESOME! It must have been the fact he was fully hockey accessorized from gloves, helmet to jersey haha.
