World Cup!

Since this blog will (hopefully) be a keepsake for our family of our adventures and milestones, I feel that I must get in at least one post about World Cup. This year, for the first time ever, Diego has watched every single World Cup game. He records them on the DVR and then watches them when he gets home in the evening. Diego goes to great lengths to avoid hearing details or scores about the games so that when he watches them at night, he doesn't know the outcome in advance.

On the weekends, Luis will join Diego on the couch to watch some games. Luis always asks Diego which team they want to win (the red team or the blue team, for example - he goes by colors, not countries). He has figured out that the goalie has a different color jersey than his teammates and that the refs have yet a different color. And, he can yell GGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL in a way that makes Diego proud. It's fun to watch. Alejo arrived in time to catch the tale end of the tournament this year - getting a few games.

Even Bibi watched a few with us. For the final game with Spain, Diego made a delicious paella that we all enjoyed.
