gold for canada!!!!

ive been following the Olympics this yr.  at first it was for home education but quickly turned into a me following it for myself!  and not so much nate. i love that about home education, freedom to do as we wish, when we wish it.  ive taken advantage of turning on the tv during the day to watch certain competitions.

a-n-ways

this morning, i asked nate to shut mind craft off so i can watch the canadian men's final game between sweden/ canada for the gold

i started watching at the 1/2 way mark. and naturally nate came and sat down beside me to watch. then ask questions and more questions and more questions

to which i was shocked as well as nate that i was able to answer ALL his questions.  towards the end of the game he said "mom! you know so much about hockey! i didn't know that you were so hockey smart!"

i laughed at nate and said well, i am canadian, and grew up watching sports (thanks dad!) and spend many, many, many hours in hockey rinks in high school (there wasnt much to do in pei in jan!) 

and i just have to say....sorry switzerland about the ladies hockey.  heehee i loved teasing chris about it.
