July: The Middle of Summer Already?

Wednesday, July 14, 2010

Now this is my favorite past time!

Two words: World Cup! Wow, what a month! Eric and I were so giddy when the World Cup started in June. We geared the kids up for the US opening match against England. We pulled out the hats and scarves to cheer on our teams. We got the kids excited about sitting in front of the tv for 90 minutes by pulling out lots of treats. I am pretty sure this is the only reason Marisol and Omar sat as long as they did. What a great month full of fun games and talented athletes. Too bad it only happens every 4 years.
Go team USA
Aren't they the cutest soccer fans ever?
Umm...treats!
Can we say sugar high?
This is how we found Marisol at the end of the game

So fun! I'm sad we didn't get to watch any games with you!

On the flip side though, it sounds like we get to hang out with you this weekend! Yay for that!!
