Day 45

Wednesday, July 24, 2013

We woke up this morning and got Ally to volleyball practice before coming home to get ready for the day.  Abigail is so excited about going to the soccer game tonight.  We finished the front side of our shirts after they had dried all night.  Once they were done, we put them in front of fans so that they'd be dry by tonight.

Robert and I moved our training up so that we could make the game that evening.  After we finished, we came home to eat lunch.  Melinda wanted to try and find some more books to read, so we made a quick stop at the library before going to piano practice.  We found a few more books for her to try out and we were on our way.

We dropped the girls off at piano and made a quick run to Wal-Mart to get some things for the game before racing back to get them.  Once we were home, Robert, Abigail and I started getting ready for the game.  Robert and I had our 'Wondowlowskiw' shirts on and Abigail had her face painted.  Melinda and Ally took lots of pictures of us before we left and Abigail was so excited.  The girls went over to moms while we were gone.

Abigail is ready for the game!

We decided to be spontaneous and just show up to buy tickets.  I am typically a planner....I have a schedule and I stick to it.  I have, however, been trying to make a conscience effort to just 'wing it'.  Well....we REALLY should have bought tickets ahead of time.  There were tons of people there!  It was awesome!  We were only able to purchase party pass tickets, which means we would have to stand the entire game.  Just one other way that Mr. Jerry Jones can increase ticket sales.  We found a place where Robert and I could stand and Abigail could sit just at our feet.  The game was amazing!  The USA beat the Honduras team 3-1!!!

When we got home, Melinda and Ally surprised us with M&M chocolate chip cookies.  Yummy!!!  After standing for several hours, Robert and I were both ready for bed.  We got the girls ready and then we retreated for the night as well.
