    LEGO Olympics 2012

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     farahjane, a mom in Sacramento, California, was at the LEGO store with her 8-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter and decided to join in on the fun and make something of her own. 'I just watched the women's gymnastics team compete the night before and thought it would be fun to "recreate" a scene on the balance beam. They even had gymnast-looking minifigs! I thought about Jordyn [U.S. gymnast Jordyn Wieber] not making it to the individual finals and how hard that must have been for her, but you can't always win.'
    - dsashin, CNN iReport producer

    A LEGO mini fig goes for gold on the balance beam. Will she stick the landing?
