In Honor of the World Cup

 The World Cup was going on while Lindsey and family were here.

 Before they came here, they would go over to Jean Marie and Betty's in the early mornings to watch the games on their outside TV.

 Benjamin and William are really into the games.

 While they were here, Benjamin would come in and set the timer for 45 minutes....

the amount of time in each half.

 Then outside they'd all be, playing hard for 45 minutes.

 Baxter didn't really 'get' the whole World Cup deal, but he was probably the most excited to be playing ball in the backyard.

 William had a bloody encounter with the rose bushes.

'Bloody' is meant literally.

Soccer...

the boys had fun...

and I actually ended up loving watching the semi-final and final game, too!
