The 2008 Men's World Curling Championship kicked off this weekend at the Ralph. Jody has been working long hours preparing for this week, now it is finally here!!! Tucker has taken to pin trading. As his lanyard fills up with pins, he is beginning to resemble "Mr. T". We are hoping that this will be the extent of his "man jewelry" phase. Tucker is also having some difficulty in deciding who to cheer for because five out of the 12 teams competing are part of his heritage; USA (mom), Canada (dad), Germany (great-grandpa), Sweden (great-grandma), and Scotland (great-nanny). To our family and friends north of the border, have no fear, for he is strongly leaning towards team Canada :-)
Lily is sporting official, all-access credentials that state that she is the "princess of curling". Really, this is only to make sure that she doesn't end up on a milk carton. She likes to wander around the building like it is her personal playhouse. Remember the first day of kindergarten when they pinned a 4X6 card on you that said, "My name is Emilia, my teacher is Mrs. Barrett, I ride bus #4..."? I am hoping this works the same way :-) "My name is Lily Hodgson, my dad is the general manager, please return me to a REA official or the main office..."
You can follow the curling action on the Ralph Engelstad Arena's website http://www.theralph.com. Have a great week!!!
