Having Fun at the Hockey Game.

    We got to go to another Griffins Hockey game on Friday. It was a lot of fun. The weather cooperated this time and my friend Jeff came along. We stopped by McDonald's for a quick bite before the game. We can get a hamburger with no bun and french fries which are all gluten free. The ice arena does not have much in the way of food for gluten free eating. We did get a diet drink and candy before the game started. I know it seems weird to buy a diet soda while buying candy. I never know how much of the soda he will drink and I can measure out the candy a little at a time. If he doesn't drink all of the soda then it really doesn't matter with the carbs. Just want him to be able to have some fun and enjoy the experience.

Way to go Griffins
    Jeff had not been to a game in a long time. It was exciting right from the start and William was right into the game. He was worried about getting a T-shirt and the coupons that they drop from the little blimp during the games. At the end of the first period it was 1-0 with our Griffins in the lead. they scored one early in the second period to tie the game but with 1 second left on the clock the Griffins scored to make it 2-1. With five minutes left int he game the other team had a power play and decided to pull their goalie. We scored fairly quickly on the open net to make it 3-1. They still left the goalie out with 4:30 left int he game with the same result. Now 4-1 the game was really heating up for the Griffins fans. We got one more goal before the end of the game. 5-1 was the final and what a great game.

    This was a better result than the last time we went. They lost and William told me he didn't want to go back because they lost. We went home and William got ready for bed and out he went. What a fun night for all of us. I can't wait we we go again in two weeks with Jen and her family.

Memories I hope you keep with you,

Your Loving Dad
