to the olympians:

...I have loved spending my evenings this past week watching all of you compete.
Winter Olympics = AMAZING.
Even Andrew is now a huge fan of snowboarding, luge, and most importantly, ice skating! :)
I think the Olympics are able to provide strength, support, and pride for each country and I so appreciate that. As a mom, it's nice to have something to watch that all ages can enjoy similarly. Andrew and I have been rooting on our favorite competitors and have been snuggled up each day together watching the DVR-ed sports from the night before.
(He's got the week off from school- gotta love year round schedules at times like this!)
Here are our absolute faves
from the past few days...

To Lindsey Vonn:
You are way cool.
And so pretty!
And I love that you wear enough makeup!
And your skiing totally rocked the other night.
And I love that while I was waiting to see you come down the hill the other night, I was quite entertained by all the other hideous crashes that your competitors endured. OUCH.

To Shaun White:
You are totally awesome.
And you seem like such a nice guy with a nice smile.
You fly way higher than all the other guys in the half pipe and do cool tricks.
Andrew thinks you are the coolest.
And I love your jean-ish snowboarding pants.
And your hair is neat!
Oh yeah, and congrats on that gold medal. :)

To Evan Lysacek:
You are my fave of all faves.
You are sassy and cool and you have nice hair.
You skate like a machine.
You wear Vera Wang outfits on the ice.
(Can it get cooler than that??? haha!)
You like snakes and feathers and I appreciate the boldness of that.
Andrew and I completely LOVE you. :)

I love the Olympics.
Go U.S.A.!
xo! :)

Glad to know I'm not the only one who loves the Olympics and the Olympians! And it is so nice to share an evening of television with the children.
