K-belle's best friend (forevah!) had the great pleasure of obtaining some autographs from some of our favorite Thrashers not named Kovalchuk or "Something-ov". Always great to see the boys out and aboot town pressing the flesh and kissing babies or the like. I'm sure the children at the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta -- Emory Chapter -- were quite tickled to spend time with the likes of budding stars Evander Kane and Bryan Little as well as "Oh my God it's" Ron Hainsey. And the nurses on duty must've been buzzing like bees in a bee-hive! A hearty thanks goes out to our boys for being such good all-around dudes!
Note: According to Ben Wright on www.atlantathrashers.com, today is the day of the annual holiday hospital visit by the team. Sounds like just about everyone on the team was "oot and aboot" in the community visiting several different hospitals or chapters of CHA (guessing). Stay tuned to this site for details, pics and video linked from the team website...complements of Big Ben and his homies!

I wish we could've run over there to meet them and invite them to dinner at Fuddruckers! I'm sure the kids were excited to see them and it made thier day! Emily is totes getting a gold-plated half heart "Best Friends" pendant for Christmas!!!
After feeling a bit stalker-ish and accomplishing nothing, i paid off a co-worker, Kenny, the right man for the job. He ended up running through the pharmacy to cut the guys off at the other end of a hallway. fantastical-times! anything for the best bud and her happily hockey-crazed beau! CHOA patients were definitely delighted as well!
Ha! Good times Ems! Tell Kenny he is the MAC-daddy for swooping into the breach and fore-checking them into signing your postcard! Too bad he didn't know to tell Ron Hainsey that we've dubbed him "Hainsey-hoff" and have photo-shopped his head into some Baywatch shots for our re-make of the TV show called Hainsey-watch in which he surfs into town along the shores of Lake Ontario to save hockey in Toronto by teaching everyone how to skate and shoot the puck! Too funny. I'll have to e-mail you the thread in which the "Ten Gallon Dick" Peverley character was born.
