In my house, we are pretty big fans of the Olympics.
It's weird because we don't watch sports on TV at all, until the Olympics.
And it's weirder that it's the Summer Olympics but my kids are in school. I remember when I was a kid we watched it during summer break.
But if you missed the men's 4x100 swimming a couple of days ago, you must check it out. (the worst recording but the only I can find here. )
There is nothing like a come back at the last second!
Plus it is always especially exciting after the smack talk from France. Although I have nothing against France, as some know I had a 3 day love affair with a guy from France. (Can I say love affair even if I didn't let him kiss me?)
It's been cute to watch the Olympics with my children. Naomi is especially interested in the gymnastics because she is a gymnast. Check out one of her smooth moves here.
She's been educating us on some of the gymnastic terms and facts as we watch. She is getting a kick out of knowing more on a subject than the rest of the house.
And Zoe, she and Phelps have this thing in common... it's called- swimming..
Her two week swim lessons have made her the swim expert.
Look what she can do-
The funny thing about the Olympics is I'm more likely to get teary eyed watching it than at most any other occasion.
There is this thing about putting your heart and soul and blood and sweat and tears into your passion and having it show that gets to me, right in my heart.
I don't know why.
Because I have nothing in my life that relates to these atheletes.
Not unless being a bench warmer counts.
A passionate bench warmer.
But a bench warmer just the same.
Two Truths and One Lie
Anyone wanna play? You say you don't know how? Oh, it's easy and fun. All you do is take turns sharing three things with each other and two of the things need to be true and one should be a lie and everyone has to guess which are true and which one is the lie.
Get it?
Okay, let's play and I'll go first.
#1
My oldest sister dated Steve Young. Something unfortunate happened between the two though and they broke up after about a year.
#2
I dated a guy named Allan who now owns a funeral home. I still run into him every so often, it's totally awkward. He was actually my very first 'love'. Our song was Suddenly by Lionel Richie (or was it Stuck On You?) and we were so sure we would marry one day. May 18th, 1987 is when we planned to marry. Tomorrow would have been our anniversary!!
#3
As I fell more and more and more 'in love' with Allan everyday, looking forward to May 18th 1987 to be his wife he was.....
dun dun DUUUUuuuuuunnnnn!!!!

Cheating on me with my sister?!?!?!
Imagine my shock to catch the two in this embrace! She had Steve Young. Why did she need my guy too?!
Truth be told, I still haven't completely forgiven her. She comments occasionally on this blog as 'DarDar'.... you may have noticed the tension between us.
Why Darla?
WHYYYY?!?!
Okay everyone, which one is the lie?
