Nice guess Matt!

My dear husband. One morning Matt woke up unusually tired. Apparently he had been up for several hours the night before doing some research. Research to figure out the answer to a contest put on by the Rapids soccer team president. The contest was: try to guess the new player the Rapids were about to sign. Matt was SO excited. He was certain he won, but it took days for the president to finally announce the winner. The longest days of his life (or so it seemed). Matt did indeed win. Way to go! He won a jersey from this player's former club team as well as an invitation to meet this player and watch a "behind closed doors" scrimmage. All of us got to go. I was a little bummed to find out it wasn't really behind closed doors. There were no doors, or at least they weren't closed because it was WINDY! We only made it to halftime, but it was long enough to meet Mr. Martin Rivero himself and have him sign a jersey for Matt and Donovan.



Oh no Matt! You missed the whole thing!






These three really missed everything. They were trying to make kites out of their blankets. I think I can say they had a great time!
