The Olympics!

We told ourselves for months that there was no way we were going to brave Vancouver during the Olympics... not only did we go... we went the day of the hockey finals. You might call us crazy! Here are some pics...

We parked in one of the Vancouvr suburbs and took the train in... Willa always loves a good train ride!

Willa checks out a crazy Canadian hockey fan... the whole train was filled with folks like this

Be cool... we totally look Canadian (except for Willa's red whit and blue...)


Near the Olympic cauldron

There it is... the olympic flame





The "fans"


The Russia House... where the flame goes for the next winter olympics

Sochi here we come!


We followed some scandinavian team going to check out the hockey game...

Willa turned two! We celebrated at the gym where Willa has her terrific tots class. It was a celebration with ten two year olds... chaos ensued! It was also fun to have her grandmom and grandad in town to celebrate with her!
