Bryan Twins Win Wimbledon 2011 Bryan Twins!

We held our traditional Breakfast at Wimbledon!  What a morning we've had!  We were thankful for the class acts and athletes on the Center Court this morning.  This is not to be taken for granted today.  Some years.



Petra Kvitova!! won the Women's Wimbledon Singles with class and charm and a formidable left hand swing!  She is very humble not braggadocios.



She's all style!  And Maria Sharavopa was a respectful and commendable second. A wonderful morning of tennis!  Maria is to be noticed for her poise and grace.

Then on to the Brothers Bryan!  The California Bryan Twins WON the Wimbledon Doubles!  We loved this!  And guess what we're heading out to the Tennis Courts with our Twins!  They are inspired!

Only problem NBC needs to apologize and REMOVE the PlayB *o* y commercial from the Wimbledon Tournament schedule!  Awful!  And this is morning, cartoon, family tv people. Awful you NBC.  Have some style and stick to your ING and investor commercials.  Do you really stoop to this level for the almighty dollar.....  ugh.

Anyway, Kudos to Kvitova and the Bryan Brothers Twins!!! :) Awesome role models on Center Court!






Warmly, Carolina Mama

Go Michael Phelps! And a Dreamer!


here


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?
