CANADA HAS GOLD!!! What an exciting weekend it has been. I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day full of love and happiness. Terry took Friday and today (Monday) off and has been working on our kitchen reno. It's been great to have him home. He surprised me on Saturday walking in the door with the most beautiful bouquet of flowers he has ever given me. He never ceases to amaze me with his thoughtfulness. Of course he made me cry tears of joy with the Valentine's card he gave me, he always has a way of picking just the right card in the store that he knows will make me cry!!! I just adore him. I'm such a lucky gal!
But this long weekend has been all about the Olympics. I had great intentions of getting all kinds of things done, but I have to admit, I have been glued to the big screen. Our athletes have been making us proud all weekend, and the absolute highlight was Alexandre Bilodeau capturing Canada's first Gold on home soil last night in the men's moguls. I had tears streaming down my face after holding my breath waiting to see if he held on to top spot. What an amazing young man. I'll need a box of tissues in my lap tonight watching him receive his medal ... especially if he takes his brother to the podium with him. What a bittersweet moment it will be. We are always so proud to be Canadian, but I think this weekend our patriotism has hit an all-time high. We BELIEVE!!!
Thanks for reading,
