As promised here are some photos from Colin's footy day. As it's a Saturday comp, Colin only plays the occasional game. He's been going to training with them for nearly 10 years. He came through with a goal for the team and set up two other goals. His team won 93-85!!
Here's his goal. The ball (it's red) is right above the power lines. Colin is #15. (Sorry about the size, I haven't learned how to modify the photos yet!!)
It was an absolute gorgeous day after a week of rain. Not that I'm complaining. We need the rain desperately. But it was nice to sit in the sun. Of course hanging out with my in-laws and our friends the Kosmeiers is always a delight.
And just to continue along the line of sport, the World Cup has started in Germany. (It's soccor for those who don't live with people who follow every team sport there is!!) Tonight is the first game for Australia who play Japan. Australia has not been to the world cup since 1973. Yippee. (Do you feel my excitement??) What this means is that Colin will be up to all hours of the night to watch every game LIVE. Can't miss a moment. He and his brother Leon have such a passion for soccor, well any sport really.
Have a wonderful week everyone. Thanks again for all the comments. Really enjoying reading your thoughts!!

Congrats on the game and on Australia advancing in the World Cup.
Guatemalans are pretty keen on World Cup games too. Our Bible teacher gets his kids to read the bible for 10 minutes, then they get to watch World Cup (if there's a game on) for 30 minutes. Guatemala, like Canada, has never made it to a World Cup.
