Soccer Fans

Heartbreakingly to these guys, USA lost Saturday.



Just to give you an idea of how incredibly important this World Cup is/was to Tucker:
Me: Hey hun, I found these in the car. (I hold up Tucker's blue USA World Cup shirt and his red and blue USA scarf)
Tuck: Thanks (of course not paying too much attention to what I was saying)
Me: I'll put these in the wash tomorrow so that you can have a clean soccer shirt for the next game. (I know I'm a nice wife)
Tuck: Noooooooo! (everything happened in slow mo as he practically dove for his dirty USA gear as it nearly hit the laundry basket)
Me: Why not? It smells...
Tuck: It's good luck, we are on a winning streak here.
Me: Huh?

I'm typing this from my new iPad!

Tuck got me an iPad for my birthday! I'm still playing and it is exactly what I wanted.
For those of you that watch Modern Family, all week long Tucker was telling me, "low expectations, low expectations!"
I can't wait to play and read on this high tech gadget all summer long!

Marsha's Married

Yesterday Marsha married Craig Brown in Marina Del Rey.

Beautiful weather, loving friends and family, an adorable 2 year old son, and a lifetime to share with one another.

Some things in life are so brilliantly meant to be.

2 Hours

in stop and go traffic
3 nights sleeping over at my grandparents
22 anxiety, stress ridden 8 year olds for 5 days of CST testing
and eyes that can barely stay open
can't keep me from coming home to see this guy.
He turned 33 this week and I can't help but think that I haven't done enough to fill his life with as much praise and thanks as he deserves. Yet he is a perfect husband, leader, and role model that even I look up to for support, advice, and a lent ear. I know the coming year will have as much surprises as this last year has given us and I'm greatful that it is only 2 hours to get home to my best friend.

*Please note, this is an outdated picture. Why have I not chosen a recent photo, you may ask? Tucker has chosen to grow his hair long and conveniently forgets to shave, therefore, I am torn between showing a clean-cut picture or showing a latter modified version of the man I married 2 years ago.

Some Things We Can't Get Enough Of
