We had a very busy day yesterday. Ben & I went to see the Visa Championships at Chaifetz arena in the afternoon. We went to see the senior men's competition, which decided who would be on the National Team for the Olympics. I got an opportunity to take a picture of Ben with the Billiken (SLU's symbol)
The performances were amazing and we had fantastic seats. Ben absolutely loved the whole thing and he took it all very seriously. John Orozco won the gold medal for all-around, which was amazing because he didn't win a gold medal for any individual events. It just shows that you have to be consistent rather than good at one thing. It was fun because he won on the last 2 events. His floor exercise was amazing-it's here on you tube http://www.youtube.com/usagymnasticsorg
We got tickets on Groupon, so they were a good deal, but we were sitting right in the sun and it was ungodly hot
This is Maggie's look of disgust when there was (to her mind) a bad call, she was outraged!!!
It was a great game and the kids watched the whole thing. I guess they have finally reached an age where they will watch the game and not spend more time running around or buying food!!!!
