Happy Birthday Cristiano Ronaldo

My boys are big sports fans. They aren't to picky--as long as they are watching in person. They do tend to lose interest if we are watching baseball or hockey on tv--not enough action on the baseball side--and so much action it's hard to keep straight on the hockey side!! The one that they have come to love--Basketball and Soccer.

When we were home visiting family last summer, we had the opportunity to take them to a REAL SALT LAKE soccer game. They loved it, and came home with souvenir soccer balls of their own. It's all I heard about for weeks!

Their favorite team is REAL Madrid (I wonder why??) and Real Madrid was really interested in acquiring a "Winger" by the name of Cristiano Ronaldo. He is currently playing for Manchester United. He was born in Portugal and today is his 22nd birthday! I need to show them his Cristiano Ronaldo fansite. They would love it, since it's dealing with Soccer!! I think Ronaldo has decided to extend his contract with the United--it would be great if REAL Madrid could have snagged him!

House Sitting!

My kids and I are going to be staying at my sisters house for the next few nights! Her family is leaving for Phoenix tomorrow, and they have two big dogs that need to stay home. So we are going to move in until Thursday.

My kids are excited! Aunt Robyn's house is sooooo much cooler than ours--I think every new house is neater than ours! They are excited to be able to play some PS2 games, and watch some satelite tv! We don't have cable at our house--so they really enjoy getting to see what they are missing on a daily basis!

I'm glad it's Robyn flying and not me! I HATE to fly! I get all sick to my stomach and antsy and that whirring of the engines just about drives me mad!!
