World Cup

I'm not sure how it is at your house, but in ours it's World Cup madness. Soccer is on as is, so now it's the only thing on the T.V. (not really, but that's how it seems). We decided to host a party for the first USA game against England.

We got the house ready with a USA national team flag...
Landon and Andrew had USA jerseys and Libbie and I had on matching USA shirts.
If you've been in our house, you know that it's not the biggest and it would be a squeeze to have 20 some people stuffed in our family room, but we managed. We had intended for some people to watch in the basement but no one wanted to watch on the little TV, not even Landon. He found a spot on one of my girlfriend's husband's lap.
Then he found a spot on the couch to play with some other big guys!
This does not do the mass of people justice. This was at half-time, the only time most people moved to eat. Once the game started again, the empty spots filled in and the eating stopped.
It was great having friends and neighbors at the house and no one really cared to be squished. USA didn't win but we'll take the 1-1 tie!
