The soccer game!

Saturday night Riley and I went to a professional soccer game with his team. Unfortunately, it rained the whole night! We had some ponchos left over from the BYU game. We were a little afraid to wear them in U of U territory though (they have BYU printed all over them). The game was amazing to watch though. I think that I have decided that I really like to watch soccer. Riley had a good time despite the rain. He did not complain about the rain once. Towards the end of the game we found out that he was cheering for the opposing team (Colorado). I think he thought that since we were in the U of U stadium that we should cheer for the opposing team. The funny thing is that he was able to go on to the field before the game and was given a SLC Real t-shirt to wear. The kids got to make a tunnel for the team and then the players ran through and gave them 5. So here he is wearing a Real t-shirt and cheering for Colorado! At one point in the game he got a little bored and said that he wanted to go on the field and play with them! Since we got back from the game he has been practicing around the house a lot (yes, in the house!!) with a soccer ball. I heard him telling Mia that if she practices a lot she could be a professional soccer player too! So that was the game. We were drenched and it rained the whole time, so I did not take any pictures.
