They're (almost) Here!


Yes, we've all heard about it but I'll say it again. Tomorrow. It begins. I cannot tell you how excited I am for these games! I've been waiting four years and I can't believe it's finally here. 



There is just a country camaraderie that I love about the games. Everyone knows what's going on and everyone is rooting for the red, white and blue (USA...even though Britain is sometimes pretty cool!). It is definitely my favorite thing to be addicted to and I cannot help but be amazed at what amazing feats these athletes take on.

I'm definitely looking forward to the marathon, the swimming, the diving, the gymnastics and the beach volleyball. Oh and seeing the Royals around.

Ok and seeing these guys:

Enough said! What are you looking forward too? Who's your favorite Olympian? We have a local guy, Conor Dwyer, who will also be swimming, so I will definitely be keeping an eye out for him too (he's a sight for sore eyes!)

  1. Too bad they are on during the daytime hours while we are at work! ARGH! We love watching swimming, gym, rhythmic gym, track and field and the husband loves table tennis (aka ping pang). I've already created a spreadsheet, color coded (be event), by date and then to the minute.
