::olympic torch, St.Thomas,Ontario::december 22nd, 2009

It was so great to witness history in the making yesterday with the boys! We all headed downtown to watch the Olympic torch's arrival and the celebration that went with it at the historic Canada Southern Railway station. It was freeeezing, but well worth the excursion to see it!

Boys looking a little cold :) waiting...
