Proud of our Athletes!!


I am totally hooked on watching the Olympics and cheering on our athletes!! I'm so proud of how well they are doing and love watching the medal count rise!!

I was VERY disappointed by the nay-saying that went on about our athletes before any medals had been won. Come on! That's when they need us to cheer the loudest and continue to give them our support, what are we Leaf fans??

They make me proud of the perseverance, the talent and ability, and the pride they have for this country we call home. Go Canada Go! I hope you can hear me in Beijing!!

Friends all over the place!!

This week I have been on holidays. It has been a fantastic week.

Friday night Matt & I went to the Rogers cup and got to see Rafael Nadal play. He is amazing! Saturday I went to a party for one of my closest friends who has recently purchased her first home! Way to go Gracie!! And then from there was able to join some more friends for a barbeque. Sunday Matt & I got up early to drive to Manitoulin, and on the way see Alex off to camp for the next three and a half weeks (I wish I could have joined Alex, he's going to have such an amazing time). Our time on Manitoulin was good (ok...maybe a little stressful since the senior at camp was a wee bit cranky and beligerent). When I got home on Wednesday night I got a wonderful treatment from Jenn and dinner served! Wow! We had a most enjoyable evening, capped off with a trip to a couple of fun stores (Jenn is a very bad influence). And then yesterday, I was out and about and bumped into both Amber and Mo. It was so great to see their smiling happy faces!! And since it was Amber and Mo and I had just been with Jenn the night before it made me yearn a bit for my crop room....so today I had to go by Lucy's to see what she has on sale and to pick up the layout I had entered in her contest (sadly, I did not win...but I'm glad I entered it because Lucy tells me I did not come in last and I felt very brave entering it!!).

I am so grateful not only for the opportunity to have some holidays, but to have friends that make it such fun! I find myself in my crop room tonight pulling some paper together with a strong desire to create something! Anything! It is great to live in a city like K-W where you can bump into those you don't always get the chance to spend much time with. Thank you friends. I hope I bump into more of you soon!
