Opening Ceremonies Photos!

This is our 5th day in the Olympic Village and a lot has happened in the past five days. The women's skiathlon was yesterday, the men's skiathlon was today, we had opening ceremonies Friday night, and there are always multiple events playing on our TVs providing us with plenty of entertainment. I'm very proud of all of our girls who raced yesterday. Jessie and Liz placed an amazing 8th and 12th respectively, Sadie was just out of the top 30 in 31st, and Holly had a tough one, but finished with a smile on her face like she always does. Our boys had a solid race this afternoon. Their race was 30 kilometers on some seriously tough courses. I was happy to be cheering from the side! Here are some more photos from the past few days. Most of them are from Opening Ceremonies because we were pretty freaking excited! Two more days until my first race!
