Real Salt Lake Game


I didn't really know what to expect going to see the worst two teams in the MLS play each other last night. On the one hand, RSL has been so terrible this year, and their only high profile player is gone. L.A. is equally as bad, and David Beckham is still "injured" so he didn't even show, that I know of.

But the game was awesome! Jenny, Tanner, Jessica, Darrin, Clifford, and I went and really had a great time. There were four goals scored, 2-2, 3 of which were on penalty kicks. One of the best things is that the game was "sold out," meaning people bought tickets early in case Beckham was playing. So about half of the stadium was empty and we got chair seats. Tanner told me during the game, "This is the best game I've ever been to in the whole world."

Which reminds me, I don't know where he comes up with some of the stuff he says. The other night I was ironing a shirt and he was in his crib, obviously not happy to be there. I heard him call me from the other room and say, "Daddy, let's talk about it." Like I was mad at him and we just needed to work through it. He's so funny!

Jenny, Jessica, Grandma Jenkins and Tanner left this morning to go down to Arizona to see Jonathan off on his mission. Darrin and I are flying down tomorrow afternoon and coming back Sunday night. Stupid school! Though I have to say I'm not crushed that I get to fly...
