Family Fun


Meet the family!

For some reason I liked these little people. Mountain Man really does wear the halo. He is more than I could have asked or imagined, And my Tigers, the Big Cats have become Tiger and Cheetah . Are we detecting a little individuality here!

School starts in two weeks so we are living it up. Lots of swimming, tennis - can I just say sports - family time, too.

Tomorrow I will let you know about the awesome, positively wonderful concert we attended this week. Until then, we're off to the Olympics. Go Gold!

Go Michael Phelps! And a Dreamer!

Go Michael Phelps! Well, like you - we too woke up to a new Michael Phelps on Sunday morning! New records, history and all things American! USA!

This coming from a girl who slightly, every so slightly recalls the Mark Spitz Olympics Record Breakers that Olympics of long ago. It is fun to live both of these phenomenons.

Carolina Mama will take it a little bit further, I also was on the Nadia Comaneci cheer leading quad as well. In fact, my little sister and I ended up in the best Gymnastics school in our state after watching this Olympics.

She can also dream of being Dorthy Hamil except in south Louisiana that is a tough dream. So my ice skating went as far as The Plaza in Lake Forest - the premiere ice skating rink 'in those days.'

Then there were the Wimbledon Days as you have been reading here, I am passing on my Wimbledon dreams to the Tigers.

Dreams dreams. A girl can dream. She can even dream big.

A lot of my dreams have come true - they just do not include many sports beyond college or in a huge say, Olympics arena.

One dream come true was "My Marine Corps Marathon 2006!" It was a lifetime dream to finish a Marathon and you know what, "I am a Marathoner!"

Dreams do come true!

What's your dream? Are the Olympics inspiring you this summer? What are you watching/your favorite Olympic Game?
