What could be better than a gold medal on your birthday? Matt was so pumped. We were at Jacki's for Amy and Matt's birthday party and were watching the game with some of the parents of the kids who attended. Poor Amy had a very disorganized party, as we opened presents and had cake during the intermission and then after that they were on their own! If any kid came in front of the TV, you could hear the yelling to move from the street. I could hardly watch the final period and when USA scored, their was a definite sick feeling throughout the room. The sudden death overtime was too much for me to handle and I sat watching while reading (or looking) at the paper but still listening. When Crosby actually scored, the paper went flying, the cheers went up, and Anthony got such a fright he screamed for 10 minutes!
I also got Matt some scratch and win tickets (Jacki picked them out) and Matt won $100 on one ticket. He said it was the best birthday ever. The only damper is Dad and Nolan were in Saskatchewan, but phoned him as soon as the goal went in the net. I hope everyone was able to watch as Canada won the most Gold medals in a winter Olympics EVER!!Congrats to all our athletes.

Hi all, way behind the time again - but happy belated birthday Matt.. Yes the olympics took up a lot of time - never watched so much T.V. in a 2 week period in my life. I certainly hope Spring is here - but I really have my doubts. Glad to hear all is well - and I think we are all going to have to find this place you go for the wings. I get hungry just reading about it. Have a great week Matt - talk to you all soon. Love Aunty Bren
