The Olympic Bug

Our family was infected by the Olympic spirit for the past 2 weeks and it was fun! I thought I was bad staying up until midnight+ most every night to see Bob Costas sign off and the last medal awarded, but Nathan's enthusiasm surpassed mine. He plays Olympics all day, has won medals in many events including luge down the driveway, downhill down the driveway, aerials off the swings and ice skating on the hardwood floor in the back of our living room. He reads about how axles are done in his Sports Illustrated for Kids and even knows how to pronounce that icky Russian's name. While watching the games, especially the skiing, he wears his ski goggles! It is really cute. His other outfit I unfortunately did not get a picture of, was his red fleece PJ bottoms, his White fleece PJ top,and his blue fleece PJ top on his head. Dave was perplexed as to the why of this particular outfit, but it seemed quite obvious-he was dressing as any good American; in red, white and blue!
