Olympics 2018
This is the first time our kids are going to experience the Olympics from home. in 2010 we went to Vancouver (Easton was in utero) and in 2014 we went to Sochi.
So this morning even though Brian was in New Jersey, we all got up at 6am and did a video chat with Brian while watching the opening ceremonies on CBC. It kind of feels odd being at home.
However, the kids are at a good age to experience this with their friends at school. Unfortunately things ran a lot differently this year in South Korea and going to the Olympics was just plain difficult.
So... we will try this new experience with the kids. They seemed excited about watching Canada walk in this morning as they were all cuddled up in their blankets on the couch... and while the weather interrupted our antenna at the exact time the Canadian's walked in, we were happy that we live in the age of internet where we could look up the live feed on CBC, back it up a minute or two and watch what we missed.
It was a little crazy to get the kids to the bus on time but we managed and everyone left for school happy!
I love the Olympics!
