Canada's Most Wanted

I've been meaning to post pictures of Lucas with his new bike, but I keep forgetting to download the photos from Marilu's phone, and when I remember during the day, she's not here, so that doesn't do me much good. Anyway, they'll be up soon.

In other news, Lucas has turned to a life of crime. On Tuesday, one of his classmates and (former?) friends hit him in the face at a school assembly. Lucas then threatened to get the kid in trouble unless he gave Lucas money or Pokemon cards. The next day, the kid brought Lucas $100! Lucas then traded the money to a 5th grader for Pokemon cards. This all would have gone unnoticed if not for the 5th grader bragging about it and getting caught by the vice principal. At that point, the story came out and everyone got their cards and money back.

I should point out that this all happened on the next-to-last day of school. Suffice to say, Lucas will be feeling the repercussion from his first foray into blackmail for several weeks to come. FYI, we still haven't figured out exactly how Lucas got the idea for his scheme, but it's possible it's from something he saw on Scooby-Doo or iCarly. Go figure.

Here are some random photos that have been sitting in my To Do folder for way too long. From the tail end of 2014, here's Lucas with his Uncle Steven outside Canadian Tire Center prior to a Sens game.


In January, Lucas had his first out-of-town tournament in Brockville. I'm pretty sure I posted photos from the actual games, but here's an example of what the kids do in their down time.


And finally, a nice, innocent photo of Lucas. You wouldn't know he's on the lam for extortion charges, would you?



Tomorrow, Lucas and I are driving down to Massachusetts and will be there for a little over a week. I'll try and get one more post up today (with new bike pictures!), but no promises. If not, see you in July!

Oh my God. That's awful. I look forward to hearing more from you about that incident. That's a really bad thing he did and a really good way for him not to have any friends.
