It's All How You Look At It

Imaginations are a wonderful thing. Eli's latest obsession needs you to think outside the box. So bear with me as I take you through the Sperle Hockey Game.
This looks like a rug, but it's not a rug. It's a very slippery sheet of ice. When you play hockey on this ice you must do all sorts of crazy moves, but only when you are on offense. If you are the goalie, you need to stay in one spot and move from side to side and block the puck from coming into the net (which really doesn't exist).
This looks like a cute little three year old boy, but it's not. It's Buckeye Hockey Player #78 (pronounced seven-eight) and he's the fastest. It looks like he's not wearing any shoes, which would usually be correct. However, he's wearing iceskates and that yellow ball is really a black puck.This looks like a crazy mom wearing a knight helmet holding a golf club, but it's not. It's a really tough offensive player #7 who is, apparently, not the fastest. (Photo taken by Eli)This looks like a little boy wearing a fireman's helmet pushing a stroller, but it's not. It's a hockey player wearing a hockey helmet driving the zamboni.So, come to our house and play a little hockey, but you better bring your imagination. We might even sing the zamboni song for you!
