Eugene!

The Olympic Trials are in Eugene right now and they are great. We spent Monday evening down watching three Oregon boys make it to the Olympics in the 800m. To say the least I am so excited for the Olympics. (from L: Mom, Uncle Richard, Houston, me, Court, Courtney, & my dad)
Tuesday & Wednesday were rest days for the trials, so we were able to enjoy the field and the things going on around it without the crowds. Sam loved asking questions and learning all about the events.
While we were there they replayed the 800 m event and they three guys were there to sign autographs after. It was really cool to see them up and close. It will be fun to watch them later in the summer. This is a link to the news clip and the video of the event, it is worth watching!

Here is the family (me, Court, Sam, mom, Amy, & Dad) on our way out of the area of events.

Very cute AMY!
