Future Olympic Curlers!










5th Annual McChung Bonspiel

The 5th Annual McChung Bonspiel had an Olympic theme this year! In fact, Vinh opened the spiel with an oh so inspirational speech that the winning team would receive a bid to the 2014 Olympic games!! Each team represented an "unrepresented" country with team Fiji taking the bonspiel...and of course the traveling trophy! All in all everyone had a great time...including the losing teams that had to grace us with their mad karoke skills...

Team Yemen (Novotny's) bringing down the house with a rendition that was quite memorable...they come from a land down under!!

Grandpa Jack and Mom led us in the "Grand Ole Game" song...after Grandpa explained that he has led that same song many times over in years past...only usually after a "few hookers"! This of course led to a crowd of laughs...ending with Grandpa explaining that "hookers" actually meant drinks :)
Here's the crew after another successful bonspiel...it's amazing how tired the day makes all of us!!
New this year was the McChung daycare for the bonspiel...Grandma Jeanie had her hands full with Addy and her friend Xavier Haffley. The kids enjoyed their playtime and naps...like mother like daughter...I remember basically growing up at the curling club :)
