U.S. is Golden!!!

You know, watching the Olympics is alot of fun. Shawn & I have really been enjoying it. The gymnastics competition has been great, with both U.S. Teams winning Team Silvers and the two Individual All-Around Golds! I also like watching the swimming. Michael Phelps is amazing!

We had a birthday party for my Grandmother this Saturday. She is 80 and doing fantastic! Everyone got her presents even though she said not to. You can't help getting something when a person turns 80. We had a wonderful time. A bunch of us played poker (with fake money) and Christina and I stomped everyone! I love beating Shawn at games. He thinks I am a little spiteful about beating him, but I can't help it. Sometimes I think it's a hold over from when we 'dated' in college. He broke my heart, so I rooted against him. I love him dearly now, but I still like beating him, whether it's me or someone else. I hope he understands.

My cousin Frank and his wife Andrea are having a girl!!! Mom is so glad because she's been knitting baby blankets for all the babies that are coming this year (there are four) and wasn't sure if anyone was going to have a girl. The blanket is lovely and everyone is very happy for the expecting parents. We asked Frank and Andrea if they had decided on a name (nothing is final), we told them what we had picked for our own and Carol thought I was pregnant. I AM NOT!!! Shawn and I have just discussed it. It's good to talk about this before you get pregnant. It makes it easier when the time actually arrives.

TTFN.
