December 30th, 2009 - Canada’s Best Torch Runner

Well, I think so! My younger sister ran with the Olympic Torch last Wednesday. It was a really exciting day for her. She wrote a 300 word essay about the environment and “No-trace camping” and was picked from thousands of applicants.

Way to go Connie! Woohoo!!!!!!

She brought the torch to our family Christmas dinner and everyone got to see it. She’s been wearing the hat and the jacket all weekend. I think she likes this stuff better than her Christmas gifts.

Have a great evening. And if I don’t post tomorrow, have a happy and healthy New Year.

    That’s an exciting thing for your sister!

    I have a quilt that I made during a previous Winter Olympics, I can’t remember which one! Maybe next year I’ll work on quilting it during the Olympics!

    Have a Happy New Year!
