Happy early Memorial Day Weekend everybody!  I cannot wait to tell you about all the fun and excitement from the past week!

Last Thursday was a beautiful day and I had so much fun!  I think I have to be careful in the sun though, I almost got sunburned as I helped the Monarchs Front Office paint a amp of the United States on the playground at the Gossler Park Elementary School in Manchester, New Hampshire.  The children were so happy and the sixth graders loved their new cubbies that will go in Park Side Middle School.  I also helped to paint a multiplication table and a kickball field!

After narrowly escaping sunburn on Thursday, I probably should have laid low for a day or two but instead I went to the 14th annual Exeter PTO Get Fit In May 5K Road Race on Saturday morning.  I am glad I did because I had a blast dancing to music and even had the chance to paint a few faces!  The road race was exciting and all the benefits from the event went to Exeter Main Street Elementary School and Lincoln Street Elementary School.  Thanks to everyone that supported the event.  Hopefully you had as good a time as I did!

On Sunday, I finished a busy week by heading over to Goddard School in Derry, New Hampshire for their Children’s Expo.  It was really fun and the New Horizons Food Drive collected a lot of donations.  Thanks to everyone for making the Children’s Expo a successful and fun event!

Can you believe the Los Angeles Kings are headed to the Stanley Cup Final?!  Bailey must be losing his mind over there!  I heard there were nearly 4,000 people waiting at the airport in Los Angeles for when the team came back from Phoenix!  I hope they had pancakes ready when Dustin Penner arrived!  Anyways, congratulations to the Kings but especially to my buddies and former Monarchs guys.  Keep it up!!
