Summer, Sprinklers and The World Cup

Summer, Sprinklers and The World Cup

We are in the midst of World Cup madness!
Chris woke Freya and I at 8 a.m. (MST) so we could watch the US v Algeria.
I love watching soccer with Chris and this game was exceptional.
Unfortunately I left the room at 90:45 and missed the game winning goal.
For my friends that don't follow the World Cup, with this win the US advances to the "sweet sixteen" of the World Cup.



World Cup love in the comics today!

Freya gets soaking wet two or three times a day.

I love summer.

Lagoon

We love Lagoon.
I could never, ever write the wonderful history of Lagoon as well as you could learn all about it by reading a two minute article on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagoon_Amusement_Park

Lagoon is one year younger then Conney Island.

This carousel is over 110 years old and hand carved out of wood.

This carousel is an amazing piece of handcrafted art.

Freya and I could ride it all day!
