Gifts for Operation Christmas Child
I look at all that I have and I know how lucky I am!
My 5th grade teacher told my class about Operation Christmas Child. I grabbed my wallet and went shopping for books, puzzles, pencils, candy, cars and a stuffed animal, perfect for some little boys that I wish were my brothers!
It feels good to give some fun to those less fortunate than me. Join me in spreading Christmas cheer this holiday season. Hockey Players be thankful for all that you have!

I am really looking forward to playing hockey and eating some turkey (on and off the ice)!
This past Saturday, I participated in the Making Strides Breast Cancer 5K Walk in Tempe, AZ. I designed a pink tie-died t-shirt to wear to the event. It will be my 5th year walking for the cause. I had a cousin 
diagnosed this year with Breast Cancer, so walking it this time meant a lot to me.
Then on Sunday, my Phoenix Polar Bears team wore green bandanas and walked a 5K at the Phoenix Zoo, to support the Lymphoma Foundation. One of our teammates grandmother died of this disease. Our team raised $340 to support this important cause.
Together, we can make a difference!
The Phoenix Polar Bear Squirt A team, donned PINK tape on their sticks yesterday to show their support for those facing Breast Cancer. I played my game yesterday for my cousin Posie, who was diagnosed this month and underwent surgery this past week. My first goal was dedicated to her!
Please visit my American Cancer Society Making Strides page and support me in the fight against Breast Cancer. Together, as a team … we can make a difference. Thank you!
