FLOTUS at the Olympics

Michelle Obama lives out her Olympic dreams.

The Time of Her Life - It's easy to imagine that there's nothing more exciting than becoming the nation's first African-American first lady, but for Michelle Obama, leading the U.S. delegation to the 2012 Summer Olympic Games is a dream come true. Whether she's attending a reception at Buckingham Palace hosted by the Queen of England and Team USA or participating in sports activities with American and British children at a Let's Move! event, the first lady has been having the time of her life. —Joyce Jones(Photo: Chris Jackson/Getty Images)
Fit for a Queen - Buckingham Palace is a must-see for most visitors to London, however, few get past the gates, never mind the guards — unless you're America's first lady, that is. On July 27, Obama attended a reception for heads of state and government in town for the Olympics. She is pictured here with U.S. Ambassador Louis Susman. Her skirt and jacket are by J.

The first lady urged the Olympians to try to breathe a little and have fun, but also to win, because winning is good.(Photo: Adam Jacobs/Getty Images)
