FIRE!

Greetings. Hope everyone's been enjoying the amazingly beautiful weather. Over the weekend, We hung out at my brother Andy's rummage sale. Mia had fun playing with Easton, which is always enjoyable. The best was yet to come, Sunday. I was looking forward to the Chicago Fire vs Sporting KC game for quite a while. Despite not being a big fan of either team, I wanted to make it to an MLS game this year. Most importantly, I wanted to do something fun for myself and my father. We don't always connect, but with soccer, we somehow make it work. Anyways, the drive was simple. The two hours down wasn't too bad and before we knew it, we found the stadium. The seats were awesome, and the game was anything but boring. Chicago won 2-1. The first half, we had not one, but TWO penalty kicks. Ironically, the last game I saw, which was Chelsea vs Inter, there was a penalty kick as well :)

Anyways, it was a great time, my Dad had fun and we look forward to going to a game again in the future. Swansea will be playing Chivas at Miller Park (which seems to be getting just about everyone I know that loves soccer to go to the game) but I think I'm going to pass. Both teams I don't have interest in, and ticket prices are a bit more. Plus, I don't know how they'll lay out the soccer pitch, which could reflect where I would want to sit. I'm glad they are doing this game, because people who ARE big fans of the Chivas and/or the sport of soccer, a chance to see it on a more professional level. I won a $10 gift card from Stefans the other day. I had guessed correctly where the Fuelco fella (World Cup mascot) was in a photo in Milwaukee.

Took Mia to the final Tot Time till September at the trampoline park on Tuesday. Captain crabby pants was tired and whiney at times, but we still had some fun. Hoping to do some beach days in the near future since the weather has been so amazing.

Memorial Day weekend is coming up. Jill's familia is coming up Sunday, but I'll be at work. Hoping the weather stays as nice. Have a great weekend everyone, and thanks for reading :)
