{need I say more??}

okay...if you INSIST!!


GO

CANADA

GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice try USA, but NOT IN OUR HOUSE...NOT ON OUR LAND!!

We're sad to see the Olympics come to an end, but extremely proud to be Canadian and witness the phenomenal results we've seen over the past 17 days!

Until the buzz wears off, I'll just keep watching the re-runs of all those incredible moments....

{let the games begin...}


I am so proud to be Canadian! And I will do my best in these next 16 days to try and teach my girls about what it means to be from this incredible country we call "home!"

{proud to be...}

okay, so i am fully aware of all the controversy that followed the Olympic torch as it ventured across the country, and i can understand the protests regarding the masses of money being put to much better use...elsewhere! but they're here...we did get the bid to host the Olympics and i am very proud to be Canadian, so i embrace the celebrations while they're here!

and while i took part in the coming-together of communities to celebrate the arrival of the torch, i also realized that i was proud to be...

a muma to these two girlies...however silly they are!

free from day-time obligations to be able to take our kids to events like this...

a part of a small community...

embracing my culture within our small community...

{whenever we have ceremonies that invlove drumming and singing, the eagles always come out and join us! This one arried while the group was warming up...and once their performace really got going, 8-10 eagles joined this one!!}

able to witness the arrival of the torch first-hand being brought in by a young member of our Nation...

a witness to the history in making with my Granny blessing the torch-bearer...


and lastly, i am proud to be:
a grand-daughter to this woman...a symbol of strength, a true matriarch!
