Please tell me that you are watching! I seem to be the only fan in my home ... what is wrong my family??? I love watching the Olympics! I become drawn to every sport - even fencing! What/who are your favorites?
I love love the olympics. We even thought of staying home from church for a second to watch basketball. My favorite summer olympics are women's gymnastics, diving, beach volleyball, swimming - and of course track and field. I love love Dara Torres. Go olympics!
We are watching....tonight I was glued to the women's gymnastics. The women from all countries are fantastic! Don DVRs everything so we can watch without commercials and pick and choose and fast forward boring parts!
we love to watch them, was so excited about the relay team last night.. I love the gymnastics my favorite, it reminds me of me when i use to do that! NOT (well i tried to tell boyd i use to look like those girls! lol.. One of my daycare Dads is a team DR. there for the swim team so I get to hear allot from his wife when she drops the kids off he will have been there for six weeks from the time he left to when he will be back, and he's time is all volentered they get no pay, but just the thrill of being there.!
We try and catch as many of the events as possible. We even woke up our kids (at their request) to watch Michael Phelps win yet another GOLD medal. So far, the Men's Swim Team has captured our admiration - Did you catch that 4x100 Relay?? It was AMAZING!!! We have watched air rifles, volleyball (both indoor and beach), water polo, basketball, swimming, gymnastics, and even badminton...
I'm an Olympic junkie too Karen. I love the whole thing but my fav's are swimming, gymnastics and track and field. Steve's cousin April just qualified for the finals in pole vault. It should be broadcast Monday evening. We're so excited. Oh and we all love Michael Phelps!!!
I'm a wife to one (obvi), mother to five (amazing kids), and grandma to five (my reward for putting up with the aforementioned amazing kids). A Shaker's life is always hopping. We do everything spontaneously because, let's face it, it will all change 14 times from the original plan ... which is just like life!! So we learn a lot of life lessons around here, and I think I should write them down somewhere in an effort to not repeat stupid. This is my blog.

I haven't watched any yet, but I like gymnastics best when I do.
