Thank you Luuuuc!

Last night was a very special hockey night for the LA Kings. Luc Robitaille's jersey #20 was retired at Staples Center before the Kings/Coyotes game. Here is a link that summarizes the ceremony and his incredible career. I remember going to a Kings game and Luc scored a hat trick (3 goals in one game). After that, people began throwing in their hats which was just so amazing to witness. Everytime Luc touched the puck, everyone in the stands would yell, "Luuuuc!" and he mentioned in his speech that he heard the fans every time and that would be with him for the rest of his life.

Unfortunately, the Kings lost their game. They quickly scored 2 goals in the 1st period but the Coyotes caught up when the Kings' goalie had to leave the game due to dehydration. The new goalie is brand new to the NHL so the Coyotes scored enough to win the game. Boo!

My family has colds and Hector has a sinus infection. Tyler complained of feeling ill yesterday morning but felt better later on. Lupe offered to babysit the kids overnight since we really wanted to go the the retirement ceremony. Poor Tyler got sick at his aunt's house and threw up. He has a fever so he will be staying home tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed that none of us get whatever Tyler has!!
