The Olympics

I am loving the winter Olympics. Yes, I have only skiied twice in my life but I could watch those gals fly down the mountain for hours. And don't get me start on the short track speed skating. Yes, this is my idea of good TV.

Anna Kate loves it too. This is a bit of our conversation last night while watching the two man bobsled.

AK: Oh, football (she noticed the guys with helmets on)

me: Well it is sort of like football but this is the bobsled

AK: Blue

me: Yes their bobsled is blue. Good job.

AK: WEEEEE! (watching them fly down the track)

me: Yes, that looks like they are having fun.

AK: Football (said very confidently)

me: Yes, sort of like football

Or this conversation while watching some skiiers crash

AK: Oh no!

me: Yes, she fell down, but she's ok.

AK: Ok

me: Yes, she's standing up so she's ok now

AK: OK!

Now she says OK? then OK! after every skier does their run

Yes, we love the Olympics. Think you will catch me in 2014 on the halfpipe?

We love it too! Can't wait to hear Anna's commentary :) The short track is one of our favorites, although the rules make me sort of mad. They should not be able to bump each other around like that.
