What an Amazing Opening Ceremony!

Hey everyone!

I wanted to write a quick note to see how everyone is doing. It's been a while since I checked in but know that I read your messages and really appreciate them...well most of them. Everyone in the family is doing great.

I don't know about you all but Cash and I have been glued to the Olympics. How amazing was the opening ceremony?!? I still don't know how they coordinated 2008 people to move in perfect sync. The mens 400M relay was insane. We were down by almost a half body length going into the final turn and then next thing you knew it was closer, closer, closer until we touched the wall first! Cash and I went crazy. The shot of Michael Phelps after the race ended cheering with his teammates is so memorable. The last time I got this excited watching sports was when Baron was in the NBA playoffs. Next year we get to watch him in Los Angeles. Go Clippers!! ;)

Well if you aren't in the best shape of your life and training every day to make the next Olympics I highly recommend checking out the IBY Living Room Olympics. Honestly, my friends Air Synchronized Swimming performance is legendary and Chad showed he can do more than just type 90 words/min with this nerf dunk. Despite taking some time off I am still in the top100 on the site...beat that!!

I will be back next week to talk about going to the Alma's.

Take care,

Hi Jess! Hope everyone in the family are doing well. I loved the opening ceremony as well. I'm part of a fireworks company in Colorado and we were all watching with rapt attention. Did you know that Cai Guoqiang (the main art director for the opening ceremony shoot) said in a pyrotechnical newsletter that they had set up 1800 different locations in the city to fire the show from? 1800 is an insanely large number of locations.
No wonder is was so good! Best wishes, Ryan
