Not that it isn't cool to be Canadian most days, but after yesterday my heart is still filled with patriotic pride!!! Riley played hockey about 20 mins after that gold winning shot by Sidney Crosby!!! All the parents were gathered around a little TV at the arena watching the last period of the game. It was one of those great experiences I am sure I will always remember. The parents from the the opposing team were there with us and for that 20 mins or so we were just a group of proud Canadians cheering our boys on rather than rivals. There was a collective gasp(and a few foul words) when the US tied up the game. Many thought it was over but I remained positive (it sure did make it more exciting!!!). Then Crosby scored and there was a roar of applause and hoots and hollars from our small group!! Canada won the GOLD!!!! Awwww...it was good. I have to say that it made watching Riley and his team play all that more exciting to watch.
I made this card for the Scrapbook and Cards, Today blog.
Don't you just love these stamps by Kelly Panacci for Hampton Arts??!!! She has a whack of cool stamps in the winter catalogue! Can't wait to get my hands on them! A girl can NEVER have too many stamps!
