Hockey Crazy

Less than one month ago, Will and Mikey got to go to their first professional hockey game and they were hooked! Will had not stopped talking about it and we had followed the team on TV in the weeks since. Combine this with the fact that this was the Islanders last year at the historic Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum (or so we thought). We were moved to go back for another day game as soon as possible!

Yup, this was not a fluke. Our kids are obsessed with hockey. Mom and Dad love it too! Another Mauro family activity is born!
