Team Turquoise

---

For some reason, which shall remain a mystery, we decided to dress alike today. We looked like we were on some team. If we were it would be the U. S. Shopping team and I know who would have taken the Gold and Silver. We had fun in and around Vancouver today. We visited Stanley Park and Capilano Suspension Bridge which is 230 Ft. Above the river and is 437 ft. long and only 4 ft wide. One of us, who shall remain nameless jumped up and down on the bridge making it bounce and sway back and forth to her delight and to the horror of some others. Tomorrow we go up to Whistler Mountain to see the Women's downhill, where Lindsey Vonn hopes to go for the Gold!

Judging from the big grins on everyone's faces Team Turquoise is having a great time. Sorry you missed Bode's amazing bronze medal run. Hopefully Lindsey will have similiar success. The fact that she is even racing is a testament to her unbelievable attitude. Don't forget your cowbells!

The sixth grade is enjoying your pictures. Colin wants to see Olympic photos. Kennon put a cookie up his nose and ate it. Are you surprised? I think not. Have fun.

Hey Miss Brooks and Mrs.Murphy, We will be watching Lidnsay Vonn as well tomorrow night. Alley came home laughing about a blog that Mrs. Fowler had written to you in science class today. Supposedly Josie Ziganti had wanted to add more to the blog. Have fun and keep warm! The Keresztesy Family

YOU ARE UNBELIEVABLE
Hi -- The pictures are great and so are all of you -- I don't know about the jumping bridge -- I give you credit for being on it!! Love the totem poll photo and really liked the Four Tops in Turquoise. Keep having fun and enjoy the mountain. Jane

looking for you right now!!
i hope you're all still wearing the turquoise! it's so much fun to look for you all, like a really exciting "where's waldo?" U.S.A.!!!! (i am training for that shopping team, by the way.)

Ummmm where the snow at?
I thought that you guys were going to the Winter Olympics. I need to sit Huck down and tell him that his Nonna and Mary lied to him. So, you two need to explain to him why you said you were going to the Winter Olympics, and instead spent time in a lush rainforest. You should be ashamed. And, to think that I spent all this time teaching him to say Vancouver without it sounding like Van-zoobit.

You girls look like trouble!!! My guess is Mary was the one jumping on the bridge. Steph is ready to move to Vancouver. We have watched a lot of skating but I would have liked to watch more snow board cross. It is awesome. If I was in the Olympics that is the event I would do. Hope you are having a great Fat Tuesday. I would say be careful all the crazies are out, but clearly you are the crazies!! Have fun, I love you, Tbone

Keep bouncing
I think you are reallly brave to bounce on that bridge. It is great to follow your adventures and then look for you in the crowds.

So fun!
I have to get my Olympic fix every now and then at work, and just checked for an update. I saw that the Women's Downhill was going on, and thought how freakin' crazy it is that y'all are actually there!!! I have been checking (and loving!) your blog everyday, and it sounds like you're having a blast! Keep the fun posts coming, and GO TEAM COUGAR! ;)

We were looking at your pictures from 'Team Turqoise' in science class two days ago. I just now saw the comment that Mrs. Fowler had written. I assure you it is all very true. Many of the boys in the 6th grade decided it would be funny to stick food up their noses. It was very unsanitary. Have fun and keep warm! Alley Keresztesy
