Hockey

The reason my blog is called A Sk8r Girl, is because I love hockey. I love hockey because my Dad played hockey too. I use to go to his games all the time when I was little. That's probably how I got interested in hockey. I started skating when I learned to walk, now I'm trying to get my little sister on the ice, so I have a buddy to skate with. I'm not like those girls who want to stay in and have a tea party with their dolls. I want to go play hockey, play other sports, and climb trees outside.

One winter in Illinois, my parents and I (my younger sister wasn't born yet) built a hockey rink in our backyard!

Ever since I started skating I've always been a fan! No sport can get in the way of hockey! Other sports can give you skinned knees or you can get cuts, but not hockey! In hockey, you can get a busted lip, necks cracking, bodies getting beat up and concussions. You also hear the crowd in the stands shouting, "fight, fight, fight!" This is when hockey players break into a fight. 
My favorite team is....the Chicago Blackhawks! They are known for wining six Stanley Cups and they are also known for being apart of the "Original Six" ,along with the Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, Toronto Maple Leafs, Boston Bruins and New York Rangers.
