I absolutely loved watching beach volleyball! Not only because I think Walsh and Jennings are an amazing duo and so fun to watch, but I loved the venue! Check out that view. You are in front of the Horse Guards house, to the right you have Big Ben, and to the left you have the London Eye. What perfect scenery and a great landscape of old and new London! Oh to have been there in person!!
I think this photo is so neat! The moon is perfectly attached to the rest of the Olympic Rings. I bet this photographer was in awe. I know I would have been. I also just love Tower Bridge - it's my favorite bridge on the Thames.
Did anyone else fall in love with these girls?!? Obsessed! This was a moment when I was balling like a baby! HA! I loved how these girls rallied around each other and showed true sportsmanship! They are all so talented and such wonderful inspirations to young girls. Way to go Fab Five! They so deserved that gold medal! Also, is it too late to become a gymnast? I mean, I'm only 24...
How funny were Aly Raisman's parents! Bless them. I'm sure they have been through just as much helping Aly get ready for the her dream!
I will admit, I'm more of a Ryan Lochte fan if made to choose; however, Michael freaking Phelps... I mean, the kid seriously has gills. I really liked his attitude during the games. He was such a team player and so supportive of all of the younger, new swimmers like Allison Schmidt and Missy Franklin. I also LOVE watching his mother while he races. She starts crying, and then, yep...I'm a goner! Congratulations to him on winning 22 medals and becoming the most decorated Olympian of all time! What an accomplishment, and so well deserved!
Did you really think I would have a post about London and NOT mention my favorite family? You must not know me very well! My favorite thing to do during the Olympics (besides actually watch them) was to get on the NBC Olympics website and check out their photo album titled "Where are the Royals Today?". I needed to know what they were up to. I'm glad that they let down their guard and showed some serious emotion during the games. Good to know their human! I may have a shot with Prince Harry after all. HA! ;)
My life is complete. The Spice Girls performed at the closing ceremony, and, quite frankly, they could have performed the entire time and it would have been the best closing ceremony ever. It definitely took me back a good 12 years!! It also made me want to watch Spice World! Who was your favorite Spice Girl? Mine was Posh (Victoria Beckham), and I'm still obsessed with her....and her husband.
This is my absolute FAVORITE picture from the Olympics. They are precious! That is all.
And...Here's why: ;)
