Question of the day: What was your favourite Olympic memory / moment ?

I have three:
- Talking to a few athletes (on twitter) and I am gonna try out their different sports this summer,
- Watching a friend of mines, friends take part in one of the snowboarding events. She didn’t medal but she had a blast
- As well seeing everyone in their countries colours cheering like no tomorrow.

Answers from Facebook:
- Plushenko’s many antics, including this gem if a quote: “Without the quad, it’s not men’s figure skating.”
- Joannie Rochette skating and winning bronze!
- Jubilant crowds on car free streets.
- Gold Medal Men’s Hockey will always live in my Memory.
- My daughters excitement as the torch came though.. she was sitting on her dads shoulders and screamed out “YAY!!!” Super cute.
- Running through the streets of downtown Vancouver yelling and screaming with a bunch of other people waving the Canadian flag. Total strangers, but all Canadian
- When we won gold and silver for women’s bobsledding, gold for both hockey teams, and the ridiculous closing ceremony with the flying moose. Ahaha

This month marks four years since both of my grandfolks passed away. My gramps passed away on the 3rd and 17 days later my grams passed away. They were married for 65 and a half years and guess you could say they couldn’t live without each other.

The picture was from my grams funeral, each candle resembled the family (the two of them, their 3 kids and the 8 grandchildren). The daffodils are from the garden where my cousins 1st child (who died at birth) ashes were scattered. He was the 1st great grandchild.

It’s weird but everyone thinks my boo looks soooo much like my grams.

I guess you can say I’m lucky I got a chance to know both sets of grandparents as an adult. Back in 2003 is when I lost my 1st grandparent now just my dad’s mom left. The joys of getting old!
