Mens Olimpic Hockey Game, Friends and Curling

Sunday (28th) was full of excitment!
After church and lunch we all sat down to watch the Men's Olympic gold medal hockey game. We don't have satellite or cable, but were able to get the game on the internet and run it through our projector... It was kind of funny because our internet connection isn't very fast and would stall so we would miss minutes of the game. In overtime we were waiting for the game to start up again and Dad was talking to Rebecca on the phone. Because we were a few minutes behind in the game we "heard" from Rebecca, before we actually "saw" the last goal! I am sure you all know who won but.... if you don't.....CANADA WON!!!! It was an exciting game!

And as soon as the game was over we all jumped into the van and headed off to our good friends the Penners to suprise Mr. Penner for his birthday..After a VERY yummy supper we surprised Mr. Penner again and went curling :) It was ALOT alot of fun!

Here are a few pictures from then.....

My dear Daddy...(He started curling when he was a kid and played in many many bonspiels. He stopped curling when he realized it was taking away too much time from his family :) So he is like REALLY good at curling and was teaching us all the moves!

Fun!!!
My dad always wants to see the Olympic curling but I never have and we don't have cable either. This year we didn't even really watch the games.
It would be one of the first in all 14 years I've been on this earth that I haven't seen a game.
