PHELPS!!

I just LOVE Michael Phelps. Is he not like a swimming machine? And he makes me so proud to be an American. I almost feel like saying, "Look what we did!" even though he is the one that did it. I can barely swim one lap at our local pool without having to stop for a rest.

Doesn't he just look like a sweet guy? His mama did a good job with him!!

I LOVE this shot. Can you imagine how this feels? Sorry, no quilt photos. I have Phelps Fever! LOL

U.S.A.!! More Gold!

Wow! I just watched the Men's Freestyle Swimming Relay. I let the kids stay up to watch since Michael Phelps was in it. I had heard about the French team saying they had come to beat the Americans. When I heard that I thought, "Oh yeah, you just fired those guys up!" And sure enough - they won the gold! We were jumping up and down and screaming, "U.S.A."!!! I am too excited to go to bed now but I have to get up early so I will go and stare at the ceiling for a while until I drift off to sleep.
