BLUEEEEE IS THE COLOUURRRR....

Hellooooo people. Another busy day off. But first, let's get to last week (thursday or friday) I believe. After work I  checked the mail and to my surprise found my brand new Frank Lampard Chelsea FC 2012/2013 jersey in the mail :) It came from out of the country so it took quite a while to get here, but nonetheless, it's awesome and because Chelsea played Reading today, I wore it when Mia and I watched the game with my Dad. I absolutely love watching the game in real-time verses having to check Twitter for updates, or watching it online (sometimes the live feed struggles). What made the game extra-special, was how amped Mia was for it. This morning I said "Mia, we're going to watch Chelsea play today!!" and she'd say "GOALLL!!" During the game, Eden Hazard was tripped in the penalty box and the Blues were rewarded a Penalty Kick. Super Frank stepped up to take the shot. I knew he'd make it because they don't call him Super Frank for nothing. So he took the shot and when it went in, my dad and I said "GOALLL!!" and Mia just flipped with excitement. She yelled "GOALL GOALL GOALL" and was bouncing on the couch. It was easily, one of my favourite moments today with her. Well, I'll tell you about LATER tonight when we were working on folding laundry. Jill mentioned once "we gotta find something Chelsea for her" but the custom little jerseys are pretty pricey for a little kid, and they don't really have anything on Amazon for kids that's not a newborn. Oh well.

After the game, (Chelsea won 4-2) we headed over to visit Grandma as she shopped, and then drove home. Now normally she passes out before we make it to the freeway, but she didn't today. I think it's because we didn't stop and get her daily banana at Kwik Trip. It was getting late and we had rush hour/Brewer traffic to fight. Nothing worse then a kid who's angry in the back seat during rush hour! We played some soccer when we got home and soon, Jill came home.

Later, we had some serious work to do with organizing the closet. Mia clothes EVERYWHERE so when I was putting together her socks, she was running up and down the hall "scaring" me. She had so much fun. Nothing like a goofy kid laugh to put you in a good mood right?? :)

Speaking of soccer, time for a little rant, so bare with me. This is an obnoxious trend in soccer jerseys as of lately that's getting out of control. Some team's jerseys have this silly "sash" that goes from one shoulder to the bottom corner of the shirt. WHY?? This makes you look like a boy scout or some sort of pageant contestant. Chelsea's away kit has a light blue one on white. It's pretty cringe-worthy. I love the home kit and the away black/yellow one is pretty cool. Okay enough ranting on this. Overall, it's a stupid trend that I hope goes away in years to come.

That's all for now. Better get my ass in gear to start that Stampkos drawing and a Falcon tattoo. Adios!!
