CANADA GAMES BREAK. Be back next week!

Sorry for not posting last week.  I started one but did not finish  it as the family and I have been cheering on our Canadian athletes in the Canada Games.  This 2 week event is such an opportunity to see some amazing sport right in our backyard.

The big news was that Mac was even a flag bearer at the medal ceremonies for Air Pistol last week.  What an honour!  As my dad told him, "Its a once-in-a-lifetime thing." Between that experience and watching a wide variety of sports, he is inspired.  He wants to train hard and make it there in four years.  You never know, I could be blogging about being a parent of an athlete at the Canada Games.  How cool would that be?

Until next week when I can finish the post I started and add in one about our times at the Games, here are some sites to check out:
