A huge commotion.
Lots of yelling and screaming.
BIG TIME RIVALRY.
It was team Canada vs. team USA in.... HOCKEY!
Knowing that such a momentous occasion could only occur once every 4 years, I had to call out the big guns to get some cool ideas.
I e-mailed Charlotte.
:)
She e-mailed me right back with some awesome ideas and links to many websites.
We made our own miniature hockey sticks.
We decorated those cheesy foam hats in our favorite team colors.
And we decorated these:
Notice the multiples of #87.... needed extras of the beloved Sidney Crosby!
(yes, they are maple leaves.... can't you tell? ;P)
And these...
#17 is Ryan Kesler from the Vancouver Canucks. Sports Fan was thrilled that he was in the Olympics, but not thrilled that he was playing for the US.
Yes, all of my kiddos were cheering for Team Canada.
And so I would not be the lone victor when Team USA routed them...
:D
I called in some reinforcements. There is only one other family in our huge community that is as hockey rabid as we are. And they are true southern patriots. Their 5 kids really got into the game, much to our surprise. What a commotion every time someone scored!
When all was said and done, Team USA won. Which just goes to show you that indeed, the good guys always always win.
