    Talking Whoohoo! Francois won a pair of skate board shoes!

    And two baseball caps with skateboard names on them!

    The shoes are *Globes* (if you know what they are...lol I don't don't)

    He went to a snowboard competition to watch and they were throwing stuff at the crowds and he was able to catch those 3 things! There was also 2 skateboards to be won a few pair of glasses...anyways! I'm so happy for him!

    The only is: the shoes are too small....they are 8 1/2 and he wears 12! Tomorrow he will go see at the skateboard store how much they are worth and he will try to sell the shoes and one cap to friends at school.

    Ahhh...I'm so happy for him. I'm all excited about this!

    Wow, to even be able to catch one thing is great but three is fantastic. Congrats to him.

    I know! I am so amazed for him! He's a very tall boy...5 feet 10/11...maybe that helped. It was really his lucky day!

    How much fun is that!? I'm thrilled for him Lucie, that's great. I hope he can sell or trade the shoes that are too small....

    Cool! Congratulations Francois!

    Your son is about the size of mine Lucie but mine's 171/2 yrs. old. Your guy still has some growing to do too, lol. Isn't it amazing to see your sons taller than you? Thank goodness it happens slowly so you can get used to the idea.

    Thanks everyone! I'll be sure to tell Francois!

    Yes, Darlene! It was kind of strange to see him so tall! He's only 15 and he's almost as tall as his dad....lol I've gotten used to it, but still....it amazes me on some days. So your son is tall, too! I imagine he passes you in height? How tall are you?
