Olympic Games Over for 4 more years

The Winter Olympics come to an end and the ending ceremony was almost as cool as the opening ceremony. Not quite, but still pretty cool.

So as you can see, USA did awesome this Olympics! Bobsled Gold has not happened for over 62 years. Russia seems to be a bit mad (though I can't understand why) that they only got 15 medals. During the closing ceremonies it was said that Russia assumed they would get 40 or so....hmmmm....cocky? Just a thought olympic medical group...may want to check the Russkies for super juice in 2014. Just saying. Well, looks as though USA and Canada whooped that candy bootay! It will be awhile before we blog about the Olympics again. 2012 to be exact in the Summer Olympics. Till then, we can rest easy knowing that our best of the best threw down a right proper medal collection in 2010. Good job USA. We rule.

Taylor is a Basketball player!

Taylor had his tournament to end the season and out of 3 games Taylor's team won 2 close shootouts. I'm so proud of my boy. Of all the players on the Nuggs, Taylor looks up to the "Bird Man" and loves to throw down the swattage. I loved to watch my son throw down basketball style. Never knew he had it in him but it looks as though he is a hoops man more so than he likes to carry the rock down field for 7. Proud of him. Awesome beginning to my weekend.

2010 Winter Olympics

The Winter Olympics are back again, and I am loving it! I have really started to become a fan of the Olympics since the 2000 Olympics that took place in Sydney Australia. My wife and I were just on the first couple years of our marriage with our little baby boy Taylor playing around on the floor of our little du-plex. It was summer 2000 and we got into the Olympics together for the first time. Here it is 10 years later and we now have a full family with my wife our son and daughter and I all watching the winter Olympics in Vancouver going on and we are just enjoying this time like you would not believe. The 2012 Summer Olympics will be something I have been looking forward to since the last one ended! London...that should be cool. What would be even cooler is if I could somehow acquire tickets to be there. Most likely not...but my wife and I WILL go to and be part of an Olympic crowd someday...mark my words. I am still looking forward to moving from Missouri soon, but the memories we have made and the memories we are making will last a lifetime. I hope you all are keeping up with all the Olympic fun on T.V. because this has already been a pretty good run for the USA.

Off to Wal-Mart to get some K-cups for our "totally coo" coffee maker Santa bought us and then back home for some Olympic Curling and speed skating action! BOOYA!

GO USA!

Yo Chad....Could it be???

Not getting my hopes up quite yet, but it appears that B Marsh is willing to stay with the Bronx?!?! Oh man I hope so. If he can squash this beef with our new head coach and get on the Broncos team train....this next year could be a beautiful year.

Yo Mom and Dad!

You know where this is. I took this from the webcam today at 4:37 PM our time...wouldn't you rather be there? Me too. Love you guys. Those memories will be with all of us forever! I hope to take you guys there someday to give you guys more memories like the ones that you two helped create for our little family. I love you.

February...Groundhog day!

Its official. Punxsutawney Phil has spoken!

For those of you who like silly superstitions and fun facts here is a bit to chew on. The Story Goes:

Punxsutawney Phil gets his longevity from drinking the "elixir of life," a secret recipe. Phil takes one sip every summer at the Groundhog Picnic and it magically gives him seven more years of life.
On February 2, Phil comes out of his burrow on Gobbler's Knob - in front of thousands of followers from all over the world - to predict the weather for the rest of winter.
According to legend, if Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter weather. If he does not see his shadow, there will be an early spring.
No! Phil's forecasts are not made in advance by the Inner Circle. After Phil emerges from his burrow on February 2, he speaks to the Groundhog Club president in "Groundhogese"(a language only understood by the current president of the Inner Circle). His proclamation is then translated for the world.
The celebration of Groundhog Day began with Pennsylvania's earliest settlers. They brought with them the legend of Candlemas Day, which states, "For as the sun shines on Candlemas Day, so far will the snow swirl in May..."
Punxsutawney held its first Groundhog Day in the 1800s. The first official trek to Gobbler's Knob was made on February 2, 1887.
So the story goes, Punxsutawney Phil was named after King Phillip. Prior to being called Phil, he was called Br'er Groundhog.

(And this year....its WINTER baby!)

BOOYA!
