Friday Night Leftovers (Olympics edition)


August, really?  You are here already?
  • Unfortunately that means in another month the summer will be long gone.  I will be savoring this last month of summer for sure!
  • I'm certainly enjoying the Olympics & watching Team USA dominate the games; however, I do not like the fact that I have not seen anything live or without knowing the results ahead of time.  Darn you Alaska time zone.
  • I'm embarrassed to say that I have yet to see Team USA play soccer.  Darn you Alaska time zone.
  • On that same note, Thomas has taken a special interest in the Olympics.  Each day he asks what game (sport) is on?  Are "we" playing?  Are "we" winning?  It is really neat to see him exposed to & learning about so many other sports that he knows little about... like water polo & archery.
  • Abby starts gymnastics up again next week... let the tumbling, running, jumping, swinging, balancing & climbing begin for her!
  • Speaking of more sports, Thomas is really doing well in soccer this season.  The only downfall is when he has "late" games (ie: 6:30pm) in the middle of the week... the boy is run down & you can see him looking like a zombie by mid-game.  We are working on taking a short nap on those days.
  • Marilyn is a running fool.  Seriously.  She loves to run, play, & laugh.  She is an absolute hoot.
TGIF and enjoy your weekend folks.
