Wednesday we had tickets to the mens snowboarding halfpipe. We spent the day on Cypress mountain and got to see the qualifications, semifinals and finals. Can I just say INCREDIBLE!
Mark, Liddy, Matt, and I all ready to show our US support (Matt and I raided the Nike Employee store before we left which is why we are all dressed the same)

Shaun White!
This is what the rest of the mountain looked like. Someone said January and February of this year has had the least amount of snow since the late 1800's. What a year to get no snow, bummer for them!
Liddy and I all bundled up
Olympic rings glowing at night
Mark and Matt with two of the US women's snowboarding team. Elena and Gretchen.
Gold and Bronze!
On Thursday we got tickets to the men's US vs. Norway hockey game. I'm not much of a hockey fan, but being at the Olympics who wouldn't be? :)

SO COOL!!! Love the picture of the half pipe and of Matt with the snowboarders. How awesome is that!! Can't wait to hear more about it :)
Don't know that I could consider a vacaction perfect without palm trees and sand, but this might just be it. How totally amazing for you guys!
I'm sorry, why was Mark on NBC?! Did it air? Are you in the background with your pinky finger saying hi to us?... =)
Amazing. That is SO awesome you were there and saw Shawn White. It was so amazing on TV. So cool that the US won both events that you saw!
I am so insanely jealous that you were able to be there. Very very cool.
Awesome..what an amazing opportunity!
