Olympic Torch

I am a proud owner of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Torch. Well, 1 of 12,000 produced for the Torch Relay. This is a piece of art designed by engineers at Bombardier. This officially makes me a complete Olympic freak!

Time of my Life

Tami and Vince at the Cauldron

The past 3 weeks have been the best days of my life.  It’s so difficult to even fathom what can top it.  I reckon nothing can. Getting married itself is a life experience and I will cherish it for the rest of my life.  But to get married and have the Winter Olympics in my hometown simultaneously? That is what dreams are made of. Many have said we were crazy for having our wedding here in Vancouver during the Olympics. I say, ‘Why not?’  To have everyone in the city partying with you at the same time? That’s awesome isn’t it!?

Olympic Cauldron

What a day! The boys brought home hockey gold! But sadly, the 17 days have come to an end.  Vancouver has done such a great job hosting these games. I’m very proud to be a Vancouverite! The cauldron has been extinguished, but the memories will definitely live on.  I have so much more to post, but I’m off on my honeymoon…stay tuned.
