XXX Summer Olympics - Go Team USA!

Go Team USA!

CONGRATULATIONS to all the athletes for your hard work and dedication! You all are the best of the best at what you do and now you get to shine! 

By far, the Summer Olympics is my favorite of the two. Ever since I was little, I always wanted to be a gymnast so naturally of all the events, my favorite is girl's gymnastics. And now that my niece is in gymnastics and doing very well, I was even more excited for the Olympics this year. As most of you probably did, I stayed up to watch the team competition last night and WOW the Fab 5 were FANTASTIC! It really felt like I was watching the Magnificent 7 back in '96. Each and every one of them did what they had to do to keep their team alive! I'm so proud of them! I definitely cannot wait for the individual all-around!

In addition to gymnastics, I also love to watch the swimming events. I was also happy to stay up last night and watch Phelps win his 19th Olympic medal to be the most decorated Olympian EVER! That is quite the accomplishment, and one that I hope stays alive for decades to come! I am sure this is so exciting for him and his family and I congratulate him on that! Sacrifice and dedication do pay off!

Besides gymnastics and swimming, I watch diving, track & field and soccer. My hubs obviously loves to watch basketball. But no matter what event I watch, all of it is exciting and even more exciting when Team USA wins! I am definitely looking forward to the remaining events.

So GOOD LUCK to the athletes for the rest of the competition! I'll be watching and cheering on! ;)

What are some of your favorite Olympic events?
