erin go bragh!!

hi friends!! i had such a great time at the sharks game last night. d. smith's wife had some great tickets and i felt so spoiled sitting so low to the ice!! we were just a few rows back, sort of behind the visitor's bench. it was amazing because the angles and speed seemed a lot different than sitting up higher. i had such a great time also because there was a ton of scoring. horray!!

i love finding pictures of jonathan cheechoo celebrating his insane goals. (i think i've been posting them for the last two years or so!!) i don't know how he can get the puck in the net so often, but he does. and, he always is happy after he scores, never taking anything for granted. i love it!!



also, happy st. patrick's day!!



here are some of my favorite irish quotes from my quote book.

*may the grass grow long on the road to hell for want of use. (irish saying)

*dance as if no one were watching, love as though you have never been loved before, sing as if no one could hear you, and live as though heaven were on earth. (irish proverb)

*may your glass be full, may the roof over your head be always stong. and may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead. (irish drinking toast)

*may those who love us, love us. and those that don't love us, may God turn their hearts. and if He doesn't turn their hearts, may He turn their ankles, so we'll know them by their limping. (irish curse)

*may the road rise to meet you.
may the wind be always at your back.
may the sun shine warm upon your face,
and the rains fall soft upon your fields.
and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. (old irish benediction)

try to remember why you wear green and drink green beer today. it's because st. patrick brought christianity to ireland. i'll drink to that!! :)
