At our house, we love to watch the Olympic games and shout USA! USA! USA!
It doesn't matter the sport or matter if it is summer or winter games we watch as much of the competition as we can. For the winter Olympics, we especially enjoy the skiing and the ski jumping, the short track and regular speed skating, and the figure skating. The children even enjoy the curling events. We, however, do not enjoy the competitons that are judged by partial judges. Even tonight, two teams who had falls during their event scored higher than the American team who did not fall. That is hard to explain to your children when you do not understand it yourself. This does not hamper our viewing of the games. For the next two weeks we will be in front of the TV watching the games. It brings out the best in us and our patriotism as well. I just do not understand the people who do not watch the games at all.
I must admit that I've never had snow cream before! (gasp!)
