London 2012

We have been LOVING the olympics at our house! I almost thought about exercising on the way home from work yesterday, but then I remembered that I had to watch swimming and the all-around gymnastics competition. It all starts with a dream, right? Maybe if I keep watching these super-fit athletes, it will motivate me get off my fanny every once in a while.

Just a few of my favorite olympic moments thus far...

Who is not loving this girl?!? 

"The glory goes up and all the blessings come down..." 

Amen, Gabby. You preach it. 

Fab 5! what? what?

We have some friends in Brazil and are seriously wanting to go to the 2016 olympics there! Who knows what will be going on in our lives in 4 years, but if you would like to make a monetary contribution to our trip, just holler at me! You could even say, "I helped somebody get to the olympics." Just sayin. 

and it SHO is a happy day

Our family's stance on the Chik-Fil-A debacle

After a glorious week at home and at the beach, I returned to Arkansas with a lot on my plate. A wrecked car, a crippled husband, a vomiting baby that included vomit running down my leg and in between my toes (too much for ya? sorry), and a near arrest are just a few things that I encountered upon my return to the natural state. 

After all the craziness died down a little, Tyson and I finally got to talk about our lives and what's been going on. Naturally, we ended up on the chick-fil-a issue and I wanted to share where we stand on the situation. Here is how our conversation went...

Rachel: "what do you think about all this chick-fil-a mess?"

Tyson: "I don't really know. I've been drugged up and in bed for the past few days. What's going on?"

Rachel: "Truett Cathy said he didn't support gay marriage and now people are protesting and boycotting"

Tyson: "Well, good. That means shorter lines and more chicken for me!"

So, there you go. The issue here is clearly the chicken and all we know is that it doesn't get much better than a #1 with a sweet tea. 

You thought I was about to get serious and religious with you, didn't you? haha!!
