Our Opening Cermony

Let's just start by saying that I love the olympics.  I love the competition, the level of athletics, and the personal stories. I want to pass this love on to my kids so we will be getting a much needed break from all the heat over the next several weeks and we will be watching lots of t.v.  Tonight we celebrated with our very own opening cermonies!

First, we had an olympic torch snack!

 Some good friends came to help us start the games.

Then we made a medal.

Showing them off...

Then we made an olympic rings abstract art piece. (I wish I took a picture of the after--they are so cute and great for any age.)

Athletes need a carb fix before a big competition so we had pizza and finished it off with olympic cake.

Due to it raining outside, we made the best out of it and did a few of the races in my living room.

 And finished just in time to watch a bit of the real opening ceremony!
