Countdown to Beijing!


The Olympic Games are just about here! One of my greatest friends, Mariel Zagunis, will be representing Team USA in sabre fencing. Mariel is a pretty big deal. She won the gold in Athens, and we (her many fans, friends and I) have been counting down the days to Beijing! It's finally here! Since I'm in Texas, and I missed out on all the festivities (the Gold Medal Party -- where Mariel donned gold lamé pants, the Good Luck Mariel Party, the Goodbye Mariel Party, etc.), our friend Katie sent the fun and favors to me. Imagine my excitement when I opened my mailbox to a package complete with heart-shaped Team America cookies and an official USA Olympics T-shirt. What a gem! Thank you, Katie! GOOD LUCK MARIEL!
I made these for the 4th, but they're fitting for this post!
