The Kyle Satrum

SO gues wat happend this weekend. WE GOT INTO THE CHAMPIONSHIPS AT THE KYLE SATRUM BONSPIEL. So the full story is this. On Saturday moring i woke up at 8 without even thinking about sleepign in. I put on my curling stuff and got my broom and slider and my mom drove me to the Saint Paul Curling Club with my brother who was also in the Kyle Satrum with his team. He is a part time skip because another team member on his team likes to skip too. the people on taylors team are Miras brother Chris, and Josh and another guy who im not going to talk about becasu i dont fell liek making up a name for him and he isint in any of the stories so it dosent really matter. anyway when i got their too of my teamates where already there Mira and Jeni. Taylors intire team was already there. There was also another team that was from our Curling Club that are all my friands, the penguin sisters Kelly and Penny (penny is the skip) as well as Cindy and Brittney. We got sined in and somewhere in that time Jenifer shoed up too. The T-shirts for this year were a lovely lime green and we put them on to go for our group foto. During the first game we played a team of smaller kids and won easily. Then we got to hang out with the team we just played in the upper part of the curling club that had tables food. We got to eat chips and salsa and drink as much free pop as we wanted wile we played cards. The next game we played was against my brothers team, somehow every year we cant avoid playing agaisnt them. i let Jeni skip for this game to expirince wat it was like and had a hard time not going down there to tell her where to put the brom for each shot and what shot to call. My brother was also skiping for this one and Chris on his team is a better skip than him so he and me where always motioning for the skip to move their brom a little bit to the right or to the left.

Halfway throught the game one of my brothers friends from school showed up who was also my friend. He stayed for the rest of the day watching us curl. one time when i was sliding down to the hack to make a shot i was watching the people in the window and i sliped and fell backwards right in front of thewindow. I was talkign to Jinifer latter and she said she was watching the people too and then all of a sudden they all made oh no faces and she was like where did ela go.
we sadly lost that game but it was expected loss. Then we went back upstairs and payed cards and talked with my brothers team. Then we played another team and lost too. we then went upstairs and they where doing the raffle ticket thing and i got a best buy girft card for 25 dolars. Then it was time to go home for the night and Chris and my brothers friend who came to watcht, his name is now mike, and mira and Jeni came to my house because their house is soo far away that during the kyle satrum we always stay at my house. Then we completed the now Kyle satrum tirdition of watching a animated kids moive (last year we watched sufs up, it was great) and watche Kung Foo Panda. Everione was laghing. me and my friends went to sleep at around 1 o clock at night. The next morning we ate breackfast at the curlign club and me and Mira marveled at the wonders of the tost machine wich you put youre tost in and ti goes on this little conveyer belt around and then pops out the bottom. it is the most awsome thing ever and we use it every year. During the next game we payed a team and won so we thought there might be a chance of going into the championships. After we ate lunch we found out that we got in. i was soo exited that i jumped up and down for a little bit.

During the game we were evenly matched with our oponents so it was kinda like we scored one and then they did. at the final round i had to make a verry dificult shot that would make it so we could win. we had to bump oure rock back to hit theirs out in order to get three points. I lined up, threw the rock and hit oure rock perfectly. Put then our rock did not hit their rock out so we lost. When we left the ice everione who was watching was claping and several peopel told us what a good job we did and thought we where going to make that last shot, it was just there wasent enough broom and it curled alittle too much. I found out latter that everione in the curling club came to watch the last shot and thought i was going to make it.

It was the best Kyle Satrum Ever and i think i have found the team i will be curling with from now on.
