how about them americans??!!!!!

woo hoo!!!! it is 11:45 p.m. on sunday evening and i am cheering as loud as a responsible mom with 2 little guys in bed can!!!! our 4 x 100 freestyle men's swimming team just won a gold against the french team who felt it necessary to trash talk!! that will teach 'em! i'm not typically a real competitive person, but don't start the trash talking, that just irritates me! i knew how the race ended up (thanks mom!), but it sure didn't take away any excitement! i will probably be a little sore tomorrow from all of the swimming i did in the relay!! they are doing the awards assembly right now, and i must admit there is just nothing better than hearing our beautiful national anthem, seeing the wonderful stars and stripes, and witnessing the pride of an american team putting their everything into a race. oh yeah, i'm so proud to be an american!!! GO USA!
