Imagine if you will... your two grandsons flying you half way around the world, taking you to the opening ceremony of the summer Olympics, putting you up in a killer flat in central London, and taking you for a summer walk in Hyde Park...

Dearest Hortonimo Broz. Olympic Blog Fan Club... 

(or HBOBFC for short.)

There is simply no excuse for our lack of blog posts two and a half years ago at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. Many of you are only now beginning to speak to us again, while others have burned their membership cards and sent hate mail.  Truly sad and inexcusable (on our part).  If you could only imagine ALL the... Canadians... we had to deal with on a daily basis ~ you'd understand completely.  That being said, I thought I'd post a few of the more... memorable pics from those two weeks in Canada.  Just a teaser in our run up to the London Games...
4 days and counting!!!!

Gramz made it!!!!  You know it's a party when that ol' gal comes to town!

Nothing gunna keep her from the Louge

Good Times Katrin pulled out her over powering dirty girl eyes...  DANGER!

PARTY PEOPLE IN THE HOUSE...

GET SOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  What it's all about people!!!!

@ 81 years old ~ peeing in an outhouse... on solid ice...  is near impossible.  You need some help people.  And when someone(s) makes a huge joke out of it ~ you have to pee while cuss them out and demanding they hold up the house... all while balancing in a rocking/sliding outhouse & holding your breath.  Is there anything this woman can't do?

Little Sister Mariam Flew in for some fun too!

That little black and white orca/bear totally had her hand on my butt... I just went with it!

Ya'll some things just never change.... he's still very big in China or is it Japan... whichever!?

Randy's future "WIFE!!!!!!!!!" Lil' Lexi joined the party too...
Uniform Envy... you know he had it!

This is why Randy NEVER EVER gets to hold the camera...
this and the zillion random butt shots we come home with....
Perv!

FAN Love!

Her big moment... and BAM!  Deer Caught in the Headlights...  

Pure Sex...

Love that Lil' Lexi!
