What's in a Family Part 2 - Ringette Sundays
One day as we were coming back from the beach we saw a sign at a car repair shop that read "ringette registration tonight at Sobeys!!" It was a sign - it was time to get my kids into ringette.
I don't know how my folks ever found out about ringette registration but I suspect that it wasn't from a mechanic. Maybe its a nova scotia thing.
Anways Sunday was the first day for the Bunnies and it included an equipment exchange and catering by Tim Horton's. Between C and M we had just one set of equipment so I quickly bought out the exchange table and duly sent the kids onto the ice.
Mike and I grabbed our Tim's and watched our two kids play bunnies and I realized that
a)we have been together for a whopping 9 years and
b)that I now have kids who play ringette.
When people talk about "through thick and thin" I think they were talking about thick waists and thinning hair. But here we were in all our thickness and thinness enjoying spending time in a cold arena watching our two wobble around with their new sticks, trying to stay up.
Oh and arguing about who can tie skates the tightest. See Mike's blog http://maritimeyear.blogspot.com/ for C's skills assessment, its funny.
I always liked watching bunnies but never somehow imagined that they'd be mine.
