You guys, oh my goodness. I am just lovin’ the olympics. We don’t have cable and I don’t know how I’ve made it through the last week. I’m constantly checking myย London 2012 Results appย for updates. It’s crazy! I’m competitive and love the USA. This has led to some heated discussions in the workplace. I can’t help it! My only regret is that I’m not there to watch in person. I don’t know when we’ll have another opportunity to attend the olympics in a foreign country that speaks English as a first language. I’m all for learning to speak another language, but it would have been nice to attend and already understand everything that is going on. What did you think of the opening ceremonies? I died a little when the queen “jumped” out of the helicopter. It would have been cool if it were real! But I understand… safety first…
The photo above is from the awesome Jenny at Frecklewonder. I feel a kinship to this blog. I have freckles, you know. Jenny has such a great series going on called Retro Rainbrow and the photo above is from this week’s color roundup. Brown is always a hit or miss with me, but when it’s done the right way – the RETRO way- I can get on board. Click here to see all of the fabulous picks.
Now, back to the olympics:
Olympics printables. YES!
This is pretty cool. For kids AND adults!
Headbands to wear while watching the olympics. A must.
Every party should have color-coordinated candy.
A giant inflatable screen? How do I not have one?!
Only the most perfect print ever for London 2012.
**Happy Weekend**

Hi Jenny! Thanks for visiting! Love your blog. And I can’t even talk about Gabby Douglas! She’s so talented! My husband was watching a replay of her story and he almost cried! I probably should have ended this message before outing him! ๐

Too bad we don’t live by each other. We could have Olympics sleepovers!
