My Chicago Blackhawks are Stanley Cup Champions!!!!!!!!!!

The Chicago Blackhawks have made my year! I've been waiting since the early 90's for them to win the Stanley Cup & they finally did it. It has been 49 years since their last cup. I am so happy for them & that I can own a champion t-shirt now. I'm looking for a repeat next year but of course Todd thinks his team should win. We'll see about that later but I'm enjoying this victory for now. I told him & the kids in April that I wanted a Stanley Cup Blackhawks championship t-shirt for my birthday & that I'd wait until June for it. Again in May for Mother's Day that's all I wanted. So thanks to my brother in Chicago my long overdue gift is on its way. I also asked him for the newspapers from the next day.

I don't have any pictures of anything exciting. The pictures from the kids' last hockey game are still on the camera. Hannah got a goal & a silver medal. Joshua got a goal,did great as a goaltender,took a puck to the eye, & a gold medal. I can't believe the puck didn't even leave a mark. He did cry & sat out for a few minutes but then got right back in the game.

We let Sammy go. Yay. We can't afford to feed even a gecko so he got to be free.

Our trip to Wet-n-Wild was fun. It took Joshua awhile to warm up to the rides & be brave. I wish I had pictures from there but I can't risk my camera. We were there 10-4 & would have loved to stay longer but we had to leave.

Todd took the kids to our end of the year party with the homeschool group to the Aquatic Center. That night was a Blackhawks game & I wasn't feeling well. So I laid on the couch & watched them lose that night. So, again-no pictures.

Hannah is going to try out for a one week theater class at the Air Force Base. It's a summer class with a show at the end of the week.

That's about it for now.
