Welcome National Hockey League ALL STARS

Raleigh is all a buzz with excitement....we have been waiting for this weekend for over a year.  Our NHL team, CAROLINA HURRICANES, WINNERS of the 2006 Stanley Cup will be hosting the NHL All Star Games this weekend. 

 I BEGGED AND PLEADED WITH MOM TO TAKE ME.

SHE IS CHEAP SHOWED ME HER EMPTY POCKETBOOK AND SAID IT WAS TOO EXPENSIVE SHE TOLD ME TO WATCH IT ON THE TEEVEES.

 CHECK OUT THESE PICTURES OF THE SAND SCULPTURE

AT CRABTREE VALLEY MALL IN HONOR OF OUR

'CANES AND ALL THE VISITING NHL FANS AND PLAYERS

 MOM WENT BY THE MALL EARLY (6:45AM) ON FRIDAY

TO TAKE THESE PICTURES

IT LOOKS LIKE THE SAND IS STILL IN THE PROCESS OF DRYING

 IN JUNE 2006 WHEN THE 'CANES WON THE STANLEY CUP A SAND SCULPTURE SIMILAR TO THIS WAS IN THE MALL.  UNFORTUNATELY, SHORTLY AFTER THEY WON WE HAD TORRENTIAL RAINS IN RALEIGH. THE LOWER LEVEL OF THE MALL WAS FLOODED MOST OF THE

2006 SCULPTURE WAS DESTROYED

GO 'CANES AND WELCOME TO ALL OUR VISITORS WE HOPE YOU ENJOY ALL OF THE ACTIVITIES PLANNED THIS WEEKEND.

MADI AND MOM

MOTHER MAY I

 YOUR KITTY VEST I'M A LITTLE CHILLY

THANKS I PROMISE I WON'T SPILL ANYTHING SMELLY ON IT.
