olympic update

The Olympics are in full swing and no joke, its all we watch (apart from the fact that a lot of our favorite shows are on NBC so there's only a few others left). Anyways, it's been a great one so far and I'm glad to see the good ol' USA is winning the medal count and dominating in some events.

Some of our highlights have been: basically any skiing events but especially moguls.. Hannah Kearney getting gold for the women and Alexandre Bilodeau for the men. Both had awesome runs and tricks and it was really fun to watch. Plus how cute is Alexandre's story with his brother?! Watching Bode Miller with the downhill events, Paul loves him. Torah Bright winning gold for women's halfpipe, i love her she's so cute and also the other 2 winners being for USA. We're also becoming big fans of speed skating so we are now officially Apollo Ohno fans, and i also really like J.R. Celski. Also, Shaun White and his amazingness. I was never quite sure if i liked him or not, but after all of his recent interviews and publicity i decided i do.

Speaking of likes, I also really like the clothes the US is sporting. I was a little unsure about the moose knit hats in the opening ceremonies but i guess if anyone can do a moose it's Ralph Lauren. I love all the plaids and especially the snow boarding jackets.. i kinda want one of those!

Anyways, that's our update for now, and pretty much the re-cap of what has been going on in our house lately. There's still some exciting events to come.. hockey games, women's figure skating... to look forward to. Paul says we (quote) "are for sure going to breed one of our kids to be an olympian." haha
