The Olympics

Yay!!! The summer olympics have started.  We had so much fun tonight watching the events as a family all day today.  None of us could leave the family room.  Every event is like a championship game.  So much on the line.  A matter of 100'ths of seconds or points deciding the winner.  These athletes have trained for years for this one chance to shine. The funnest event of the night was watching the USA mens swim team beat France.  When that happened tonight our whole family stood and cheered.  Nikki even ran over and gave me a hug. My kids all remember going to the Utah Winter games 4 years ago and I think that helped give them a love and appreciation of the games.  Go USA!!
