Congratulations Chicago Blackhawks!

So this is completely belated, but before I start blogging away I just wanted to say a big CONGRATS to the Chicago Blackhawks for their 2010 Stanley Cup WIN!  What I love most about this city is that we all come together to root for our teams.  Buildings everywhere were creating light displays (as shown below) to show their support.  Bars and restaurants overwhelmed us with Blackhawk specials and viewing parties. There is something about our sport spirit that just fills the air...and in the month of June you could definitely smell the hockey aroma (and not the locker room smell, thank g-d!).  Hawk fans everywhere crowded bars, bit their nails, screamed their heads off, and jumped for joy when we finally claimed the cup.  Chicagoans filled the streets while champagne rain drops christened us for what was to come...Chicago Blackhawks MONTH! 

The month of June was a joyful celebration for all of us religious Blackhawk fans.  Hell, it was a celebration for all Chicago fans, especially Cubs fans, just waiting to celebrate a Chicago victory again.  It seemed the Hawks were popping up everywhere with the cup at hand and this city couldn't get enough.  The Blackhawks parade down Michigan avenue turned the heat up, literally, with the mass amount of fans that gathered.  Hearing the Hawks love and appreciate us just as much as we love them only made the Chicago spirit that more intense.  It seemed as if we were all dazed with Blackhawks fever.  It even seemed as if work hours became more lenient as the addiction of tracking the Blackhawks and the appearance of the Stanley Cup overcame us all.  So that being said we just need to say a big THANK YOU to the Chicago Blackhawks!  Thank you for making the month of June a bigger and better celebration than ever before, thank you for reviving out commitment to Chicago sports, and thank you, thank you for consuming our bosses with so much joy that it made the work weeks much easier to handle...dare we even say fun? 

Thank you for the extremely happy moments in our life captured below! 

WE LOVE YOU BLACKHAWKS!
