sport FAN-atics

What a couple of months it has been. World Cup soccer was HUGE in our house. Dean cheered incessantly for Brazil (even though this is Owen) From the beginning, Owen had chosen SPAIN. You maybe heard the "scream heard 'round the world" at 116 minutes last Sunday into the final game. That's my Owen. He likes winning and winners. (Seriously, if Spain lost, it would have been miserable at our home)
First of July in Raymond- the Witbeck/Price/whoever else shows up to eat reunion. Uncle G brought his slack line which was a big hit. We had a lot of fun with our cousins from here, Calgary and Nevada.
Oh, and this...Lord Stanley's Cup made an appearance in our beloved little city! Kris Versteeg, formerly of Lethbridge, formerly of the Chicago Blackhawks, brought the NHL cup here July 3. Bru and I were at Trek (i'll tell you more about that another time), so my DEAR mother took the boys and stood in line for over 2 hours to see it. These photos were taken by Dean.

Today the boys finished a week long sports camp:football and basketball. They learned alot and had fun. Since we are not big baseball fans, and there's no Summer Olympics, I think that this sporting family can take a break for a bit...like until tomorrow when Bruce runs his race.
Nike (or adidas, or someone else) was right...there is no finish line!!!!

Party time at the Stewart's! Owen is the perfect Amy-Bruce combination. What a handsome boy. And look at the concentration and skill in Deanie (don't tell him I call him that, but I always will.). We love you!

I can only imagine what it would have been like if Spain had lost. I'm so glad for your sake- and the sake of everyone in your home that they won! Ooh- and yes- Gramma Jan is a saint!
