~ Curling picture's of my boy's ~

Here is the Curling pic's of my boy's I said I would post.  It is kinda like darts but much bigger, it is on ice,  with 40 lb rocks w/ handles( that you slide instead of throw.  Even though they say you are "throwing" the rock when you push it off, lol.  )  You might Check It Out ! There are Curling rinks out there all over the world .   Canada and the USA won some medals in the last Winter Olimpics.  I love seeing my boys having  a fun time and my two oldest ds's want to get real serious about the game.  Who know's you might see them in 4 years (hmmmmmm) Once again here is some sites to understand the game better if you are curious about it.

That looks really fun! I remember first seeing curling on tv a few years ago...very strange. Especially for those of us that don't ever get ice and snow! We do, however, have a few ice skating rinks in Houston...but not that many! :-)

Hope you have a great weekend, my friend.

Love,
Marsha

Hi CanadaGirl!
That would be fantastic if your boys made it to the Winter Olympics. My son is heavily into swimming and his goal is the 2012 Olympics when he will be 17yrs! It is SO good for boys to but their focus and energy into a sport! Well done to them and to you and hubby who support them!

These pictures are really neat. I didn't know what curling was and now I do. I have to say some of the kids look cold to me. When I am at an indoor ice rink I am dressed like I am outside on a cold winter day. I know ~ I am a winter wimp!

I can't believe I actually got somewhere! I'm so excited. I have been having the worst time navigating the "new" site.

Anyway. Cool curling pictures! What fun. That is one of my mom's favorite olympic sports to watch.

Dec. 14, 2006 - I wondered what exactly curling was

Looks like an expensive sport to get started in an area. Nice arena.

Handsome and I




First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 9, and 7. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north. We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
