This has been definitely been a historic Olympics already which is probably what China wanted but probably with their guys dominating a bit more than they are.

The men's relay was truly an amazing event to watch, I told my kids this is something that will probably be talked about your whole lives and you got to see it. That a record for this event under 7 minutes may not ever be broken again!

Also Congratulations to the USA womens Gymnastic team for taking home the silver Medal!!

USA.......USA......USA.......USA......

Yeah true that, there's record breaking every time you turn around. Well, so far Team China has been doing their home country justice, If I'm not mistaking I think they have the most gold medals out of all other countries.

China has the most golds, but America has the most overall medals.

Yep, and by the time our man Michael Phelps is done we'll have a few more gold medals to rack up on the list! :-) I can't wait until track and field begins!
