Olympic Rings in Vancouver

My uncle sent me this beautiful photo of the Vancouver skyline with the Olympic rings


Yesterday K had 3 friends over for the evening, and one of them slept over. It was his friends from elementary school, so it was a sort of reunion. L and K's former piano teacher came over to wish us a Merry Christmas and brought some gifts. We were busy chatting and hardly noticed the 4 boys leaving out the front door. Then we realized we had no idea where they went and when they would be back. So upon their return an hour later we had to set the rules straight. It turns out they went tobogganing at the park. I just thought that if their parents called for any reason, I wouldn't be able to say where they were and they're still only 14 and it was dark outside. Then they started playing hide and seek in the basement and we heard lots of loud booming noises and could only hope nothing was broken. Never a dull moment. Things became quiet when they started to watch a movie.

We have 3 families coming for dinner tomorrow, so today is grocery shopping day. L is attending a party tonight.

I would so love to go to these games, in particular. Love Vancouver area adn the winter olympics. Seems so romantic, somehow.

I did love Vancouver when we went there this past spring. It'd be fun to see the Olympics there but I'll bet it will be a madhouse.
