OOOOOOH CANADA

During the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Ryan and I were lucky enough to go to Canada House. While there, we were able to sign a petition in support of Vancouver to get the 2010 games. So, it was great to watch the games this year, knowing that it was just a dream 8 years ago.

Team Canada won 26 medals: 14 Gold, 7 Silver and 5 Bronze.

Out of all the medals won during the games, this one is really the one that feels the best and the only one that matters!!!! It was an amazing hockey game, which ended in OT. Sidney Crosby scored the winning goal, he is a fellow Nova Scotian (Anne Murray is too, what great company)

Ryan was rooting for Team USA and I felt bad for Braxton. What's a boy who was born on the 4th of July with an American father and a Canadian mother to do? He, of course, cheered for the USA, but was still very torn since his mom was cheering for the other team. He told me that next time I should cheer for Team USA, I told him that would probably not happen. So, every 4 years, our family will be split and I will try not to gloat. I am hoping that maybe Emma will join me in a boys vs. girls thing.
