I am so thankful for the summer Olympics this year. I've been so bored with daytime TV, that I was contemplating watching soap operas again. Something that I haven't done since high school. NBC has 2 channels running all day devoted to the games. I enjoy watching sports I have never seen before, like Canoeing, Fencing, Archery, and Weightlifting. Fencing is the toughest sport so far to figure out. Both competitors react like they won after each strike, that I can't tell who really won. The hosts say how much easier it is because the have sensors in their suits, so when a strike is made their helmets light up. When I was watching, that happened to both people. I think it may take longer to learn than the 20 minutes I watched it for. I think these Olympics have been the most exciting I have ever seen. Even Kenny is excited.

I know it looks like he is asleep, but he is just so excited, he needed to watch through his eyelids for a while.:)
Here is a photo of the rest of my day, trying to keep Bogey from Frenching the baby.

Grandpa and Grammy Pat went out west again this year. One of the places was Cheyenne Frontier Days. It is a week long festival and rodeo, with concerts at night. I know when I went years ago it was a lot of fun with my highlight being a wild horse race. Wild horses are led into the stadium and cowboys have to saddle, mount, and ride them around to win. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen.

Grandpa and Grammy went on vacation and all I got was this stinkn' shirt. Just kidding! It is great and fits perfectly.
