Shall We Lighten the Mood?

With a few London photos???

Happy birthday week to my cute niece Abby (in the blue coat)!!


             

Opening Olympic Ceremonies tonight!


Hooray!
I watched Chariots of Fire on our flight to London. 


Been watching this clip today with my kids.  (Prior to our private Payson games.)



(including cycling, soccer)




(and gymnastics)



     




Wish I could have brought them each a gold medal from the British Museum! 


But they weren't for sale. =)  Tonight we'll make "jacket potatoes" (my kids think that's hilarious) and English trifle and snuggle up for the festivities. 


But don't you worry!  There will be plenty more death/funeral/burial talk next week!  =)  Thanks for hangin' with me through it all!

Happy London Olympics!

Lucy is already a gold medal gymnast! What skills! How fun to see the Olympic preparations when you were there!

Sometimes there is a need for a little 'break' in the trauma of daily living.... Way to go!
(And for the benefit of your readers, Lori makes a mean English Triffle! and it tasted good too :)
