NHL Playoffs and I have no time...

McKenna and her $300 Ethan Moreau stick

Wow, I have been sooo busy with work and the Oilers in the playoffs I have had no time to do a blog. But here I am, better late than never. As you can see McKenna has a new hockey stick. She saw a broken one that I had brought home from the rink and wanted to play so I went to Canadian Tire and bought a blade and shoved it in the end. She loved trying to hit the ball.


Slapper

As you can see she has a mean slapper. McKenna also had her fourth birthday party on Sunday. She had a party at a local gymnastic club. I unfortunately had to work so she partied without me. She saved me a piece of cake. Fun was had by all. It is hard to believe that she is four years old. What a big girl.


Rexall Place for the playoffs

NEXT/ As I said the playoffs are here and the Oilers are in. They did what I thought was impossible and beat the Red Wings 4-2 to move on to the second round. The noise in this rink is unbelievable. The fans make soooo much noise. I put up some video of the pregame. CLICK HERE to watch it on Vimeo. My favorite part is when the flames shoot out of the oil derrick. Really cool.

NEXT/ I have a new Podcast up. CLICK HERE to listen to TundraTalk, the podcast that does not suck. This weeks episode features Rob Macanally, of the LA Macanally's. He tells us all kinds of things that are interesting and a few things that are not interesting. Listen and win. No not really, I just wanted to say that. Robby also gives a shout out to Marty. I will have another one for you on Friday featuring John Garrett. He is a guy who played in the old WHA and the NHL back in the day. He was a goalie who played until he was 14 without a mask. So you know he is crazy. Here is a pic of him playing for the Hartford Whalers.


John Garrett aka Cheech

This TundraTalk is funny as hell so don't miss it. If you haven't been listening to these you really are missing the boat. They are getting really funny, no, really.


Jordi helping me put up the new wall

NEXT/ I have been working hard on the new room in the basement. Jordi came over to help put up the new drywall. I am pretty excited about this. I have never really built anything in my life. I have done pretty good so far. I can't wait to paint it. It will be Packer Green with a cool Packers border around the middle. Would you think it anything else? Nope.

Well, I have to go to bed. I am tired.

Until Friday, GET BACK TO WORK!!!!
