98 days until the london summer olympics

do you get as jazzed as i do about the summer olympics? all the stories about the athletes, their backgrounds, and how they got to this awesome point in their lives is so interesting to me. my favorite thing to watch are the sprints. i ran the 100 meter dash, 200 meter and 4 X 100 meter relay in high school so i get butterflies in my stomach when i see the athletes line up at the starting blocks. and not to mention it's in london this year. it's going to be so much fun to see will and kate and london all decked out.

during the last olympics i was on bed rest in the hospital waiting for karoline and rory to be born. it couldn't have been a better time because i just sat on my nest and watched the olympics all day long for 2 weeks straight. all the nurses and doctors would come down to my room to get the results. ha!
