Oilers!

Amazing. We took the kids to their first Oilers game. It was an epic but short lived experience.

The game was an exhibition affair versus the Canucks. Sydney (whose friends at daycare have made a pro-Canucks impression on her) consistently says that her two favourite teams are the Oilers and "pink-team-Canucks." I have no idea why she thinks the Canucks are a pink team (especially when she has a pink Oilers jersey from Ales Hemsky) - she swear she already knows how to stick it to dad (as Riles would say).

Any, decked out in their Eberle and Hall signed jerseys, the kids made it to the game (literally on mommy's back) with Ba Noi (who NEVER goes to games) and Auntika and Sabrina. We had a great time. We were there for one period, the Oilers scored early and often (i think the score was 3-1 by the time we left). Sydney and Logan were not fans of the blowing horn when the Oilers scored ("too loud!"), Sydney went walking through the concourse with me, and all in all we had a great time with Ba Noi. So much fun - can't wait for a couple of years down the road when i can take them to a playoff game.
