Seriously with the Olympics! I mean woo hoo, it's Olympic Time!

So the Olympics have taken over our house, it is making me crazy~ I love that the kids are so into it, but SERIOUSLY it is on all of the time. They are screaming and yelling and cheering on the athletes into the late hours of the evening. Last night I told them that I thought they should blog about the Olympics. When I got home tonight, Rachel and Brady had stories all written out for the blog. I have to type them in, but still I was impressed and they were really excited; Mason isn't into it yet, but maybe by tomorrow he will join in the fun. So the kids are going to be blogging about the happenings in the Olympics.

Brady:
Hi this is Brady for only my second time blogging so sorry if something is spelled wrong or something. Okay so everybody knows that I snowboard but what most of you probably don't know is that Shaun White is my hero (except for the red hair). Every Winter I bug my parents so much asking about Shaun White. So this Winter was like a dream come true for me because of the X-Games and the Winter Olympics! Shaun White won gold in 2006 and hopefully this year in Vancouver. Shaun White has a secret half pipe here in Colorado that Red Bull and himself created called The Red Bull Project X. You can only get there by helicopter or snowmobiles.

Rachel:
Hey everyone. Aim thought it would be a cool idea to blog about the Olympics since it will be the only thing on in our house for the next 2 weeks. So I agreed. I will be keeping you updated on hockey; men's and women's.

Team USA Women 2-0
We have dominated in our last two games beating China 12-1; Russia 13-0. Mark Johnson is their head coach. You might know him from the 1980 Olympic team. The girls are on a comeback tour to win the Gold. From the epic loss 4 years ago in Tarino which they medaled in bronze.

Team Canada 2-0
Likewise with Canada, the defending Gold medalist they have out shined their opponents Slovakia 18-0 and Switzerland 10-1.

Team Russia 0-2
Can't say the same for Russia. They have lost their last 2 games. Finland played them and beat them 5-1. The US team shut them out with the 13-0 loss.

MEN:
TEAM USA 1-0
Watch out this year we are serious contenders for a medal. Our goalie Ryan Miller is seriously GOOD. Our head coach Ron Willson who is no stranger to the Olympics, he was the head coach in 1994. He also led the US to the 1996 World Hockey Championship where they won. Go Hometown Hero and Colorado Avalanche Paul Stazny who was selected to play on the team (Go Get Them Boy). Also it has been 30 years since the Miracle on Ice. I think it's time we win another Gold.

PS - Gotta give a shout out to my man on the Swedish Team. Good Luck Peter Forsburg!

Team Canada
Crosby, Crosby, Crosby! Canada was on fire against Norway showing no mercy. Let me say this, if Canada does not medal I will be in awe. They are stacked with players such as Sydney Crosby, Danny Heatley, Joe Thornton, and arguably the best goalie (other than Patrick Roy) Roberto Luongo. Canada is looking good to defend their Gold.

Team Russia 1-0
Ovechkin ! What a beast! Russia like Canada opened up on their opponent beating Latvia 8-2. I do not know much more than other then I see them acquiring a medal.

Stay tuned...
