Day 44

Tuesday, July 23, 2013

I took Ally to volleyball and then Robert and I headed to the gym to workout.  Melinda and Abigail stayed home to get ready for the day.  When we got home, Robert and I got ready for the day and started preparing things for lunch.  After we picked Ally up and had lunch, we all settled down and took care of some things around the house.

Later that afternoon, Robert and Abigail started getting ready for soccer practice while Melinda, Ally, and I got ready to watch a movie.  We had been waiting for several days to get the movie Safe Haven in from Netflicks.  Melinda and I were so excited to get to watch it.  She and I both love Nicholas Sparks.  I have read all of his books and she would like to start reading them as soon as her English gets better.  We loved the movie!  We laughed, we cried, we laughed some more.  Great movie!

When Robert and Abigail got home, she was saying that Robert told her she was 'too legit'.  That lead to a couple of hours of YouTube views of music videos that Robert and I grew up to.  We drifted down memory lane, singing and dancing in the living room to the sounds of Paula Abdul, Janet and Micheal Jackson, MC Hammer, and Vanilla Ice.  Ah..... I love hearing the songs of my childhood.

After our impromptu dance party, the girls started getting ready for bed while Robert, Melinda and I sat in the living room talking.  We had watched the USA men's team play on TV a few days before and noticed that they were going to be playing in Dallas tomorrow night.  Robert and I talked and decided to take Abigail to the game.  We thought to make shirts that played off the incorrect spelling of Wondolowski's jersey a game before.  Melinda helped me paint our shirts and they turned out amazing.

We added a few extra 'W's to the back of our jersey

Once we finished the shirts, we all headed our separate ways to get ready for bed.  A few more days of volleyball camp before we head to San Antonio.
