Joe's Turn

Amanda informed me that today would be my day to write the family blog. Not having any previous experience, this should be an exciting journey for all of us. Last week seemed to fly by. It was full of fun and excitement as we sat together watching Michael Phelps and Nastia Liukin win Gold Medals. Every time swimming was on Chase would walk through the room mimicking which ever stroke was being performed. When the gymnasts took the floor both of the boys would frolic and tumble on the floor doing their very best to figure out how these people were doing such magnificent things with their bodies. One of my favorite moments was when Michael Phelps barely won the gold in the butterfly. As we stood and cheered Chase yelled "oh man common" in his little voice. I wish you all could hear him he changes between what we lovingly call his red rum voice, and his normal voice. They were both very adorable.

Thanks Joe. I miss the red rum voice. The olympics are on so late at night I am not getting enough sleep. But it's only 2 weeks so I'll keep staying up yelling at the tv.

We are loving the Olympics also.
Amanda - the playdates are every Tuesday at 10:30. We were rotating parks to see which one we like the best and then just stick to that one. Next week is Lake Bottom. They are all listed on the calendar at church if you forget. Hope to see you there!!

I like the participation on the family blog!!! The Olympics have also been a part of our nightly tv watching and it has not been good for bedtime. It sounds like you should get your boys into swimming so they can be like there mom. We could be watching them in 2020!!!
