We finally made it!

I've been wanting to go to a Real Salt Lake game since the franchise came to Utah. So when Justin's work offered tickets at a discount price, he snatched up enough for us, Eric, Heidi and Tiana, and Matt and Camille. It was so much fun!

Poor Matt, Molly only wanted to sit on his lap (she has always favored men over women!). When I took her out to change her diaper, she cried and kept saying, "Matt, back!" Still after a couple of weeks, whenever she sees a picture of Matt, she gets really excited. Thanks Matt and Camille for taking care of Molly the whole time! (Don't you just love the lady eating cheetos in the back ground? Apparently she is some big-wig at the credit union!)

We were glad that Molly had so much fun. There was a family sitting in front of us with a little boy that was probably just a few months younger than Molly that screamed to whole time! The mom and dad had to take turns walking him around outside of the stadium. Both Molly and Tiana had so much fun! I guess you could say we were lucky because Real did play the LA Galaxy which means we did get to see David Beckham (he's out there somewhere). The score ended up being 2-2 but Beckham scored both of their goals. When the game was over, tons of screaming girls ran down to the field for a chance to see him. He pulled off his jersey and hands it to one of the girls. Of course, she was screaming like crazy! The whole gang: Justin and Molly in the back; Heidi, Eric, Tiana, Camille and Matt in the front I definitely think we'll make this a family tradition. It was so much fun!

What a shame!! Aaron also has been dying to go to a game. Maybe we'll join in next years tradition. I'm glad you guys had a great time.

That screaming kid in front of you that wanted to go out and walk around would have totally been my kid. She couldn't sit still if her life depended on it.

Ross wanted to go to that game, but of course we had some family thing to attend. He has been to a few games, but I have yet to go. I will have to though - it looks like you guys had a good time.

Looks like so much fun! Jeff and I went to a game a couple years ago and also had a blast. Its fun to have another sports team like that around. Oh, the perks of working at AFCU right? he he he.
