Congratulations Cory!!!
I am so happy for you and very proud!!! You did such a great job and watching you bowl was just terrific. I have been waiting since returning from London to check out your blog as I was on vacation and don't have a computer at home so had to wait to have computer access. Now I'm glad to tell you that we had a terrific time in London, from the opening ceremonies to the second to last day, it was fantastic. We enjoyed watching the bowling and waited by the phone on Friday for your dad to call us with updates. We were in a park with Gabriel who was playing softball with his team when your Dad called and the whole family cheered when we heard the great news that you had won, not 1 but 2 gold medals!!!! You can't ask for better than that!!! Congratulations on all your hard work and great playing!!! I hope you had a lot of fun in the tournament and that you enjoyed the whole Olympics experience. We really did and we are so happy to have been able to be part of it and be there to see you do so well!!!! Congratulations!!! Keep playing hard and keep smiling!!! Have fun the rest of your summer!!!
