Welcome friends and family!

Abby and I are so proud of Elana and thought we could use this blog to share information about her Maccabiah experience. I will post news as we get it about the US Team, the opening ceremonies, television coverage, and the gymnatics events specifically. We can then use this site to provide results, pictures and hopefully even video from Isreal in real time when we get there. Enjoy!

Opening Ceremonies
























































It's very late here (12:38am), but here's some pictures from an overwhelming opening ceremonies tonight. I can't explain the feeling of watching your daughter walk into a stadium full of people representing the the United States. Abby and I were both in tears. The ceremonies were amazing with a surprisingly high production value. Oh, and lest I forget to mention that we watched a young man from Turkey take off his shirt and give it to Elana, which she then wore for the rest of the night. She may now be married...

Competion early tomorrow. More then... and more pictures but I have to get to sleep.

    This is Megan. I'm almost positive that it was Elana I saw on TV, now that I see these pics of her.
