Good Times


I am excited to say that I love to watch the Olympics. I really enjoy watching the women's gymnastics, but I like the idea of the Olympics. I have to comment on the Opening Ceremonies. They were fantastic, but when you have that many people you can do some fantastic things. The newscasters say that there were around 15,000 performers. 15k different people doing different things. The one thing that really stood out to me is the fact that the performers were amazingly in sync with each other. I have experience with tap dance and cheerleading. One element from these activities that are difficult to master with many people is Timing. But the Chinese pulled it off beautifully. They opened with some drums, and the sound was clean, not muddled by off timing. Just masterfully clean. I loved it. I was in awe of the mastery. If you have a chance to see the rerun or check it out online I highly reccommend it. Amazing. I look forward to many more amazing things.

Baby's Room

And Now... the beautiful Baby's room. Not much to say about it but that it is done!! We took this past weekend and finished putting things together. We changed our mind on the bedding, and we hoped the new stuff coordinated with the walls. I think it looks great. And yes those are maps on the walls. I love maps, and I want our children to be aware of the distance between us and grandparents. Since grandparents will probably be flying and the time makes the distance seem short. Then also I want them to be globally minded. Enjoy the pictures!!
