Need your help

Okay, I have been trying for some time to get volunteers to be models for me, but no one seems to be really excited about it. Sooo, I am begging you, my friends and family, if you have been thinking about having pictures taken, can't remember the last time you were in front of the camera, or would just really like to see what I am all about...would you please call me and email me. There is no cost for you, other than your time and your honest opinion when you see your proofs!

In other news, are you watching the Olympics? I can't get enough!!! I LOVE competition and something about watching all these amazing athletes in one place in awesome. Add to that my love of water sports and this week has been so much fun to watch! I just finished watching Soni win the women's 200 breast-stroke...it was great to watch, a great upset! Men's backstroke is coming up next and two great American swimmers. My kids have also taken to watching it this summer and consequently have turned all of our everyday activities into a competition. And I am both happy and a little sad to report that no one in our house likes to lose. I am glad they have the drive to win, but how do you teach preschoolers to be "good" losers? Trying to figure this one out still!

Does the Olympics also make anyone else feel like they need to start a fitness program (or up it for all you faithful morning bicyclers)? Seeing all these fit people makes me feel like I am somehow not quite making the grade and I need to get busy. Then I take a step back and realize that these people spend hours upon hours each day training and I think to myself "I am in pretty good shape for the job I do on a daily basis. If I can't get a great body taking care of my kids, then it just isn't meant to be." I really do need to get a little more consistent with my exercise routine, especially now that water aerobics is over. Anyone have any suggestions now that school is getting ready to start?

Okay, enough rambling for one day! Just had to get some things out before they were no longer thoughts! Have an amazing, cool and hopefully wet weekend here in KS!

Atleigh watches the divers and says, "Mom, I can do that!" We started gymnastics last week, and she thinks she is in the Olympics.
