CARB LOADING


We were lucky enough to catch up with Sharona and her little one for dinner tonight. We went out for pasta dinner so Justice could carbo load - tomorrow is his cross country day at school!

ORANGE SUNDAY











GO THE ROAR!







Justice and I were lucky enough to make it to the A-League Grand Final

where (our team) the Brisbane Roar faced off for the final title and trophy.


WHAT A GAME. The two that we attended this year ended in tied scores. So when the 90 minute game ended in a nil all score today, I turned to the kid sitting next to me to confirm that since it was a championship game someone HAD to actually win.


In the first extra inning 15 minute half CCM scored two goals. By the last three minutes of the second fifteen minute extra inning, we still had not scored. People left to beat the crowd... And then we scored! Even better, in the final minute we scored with a head bump and tied everything back up! FINAL MINUTE... Whew!


In a penalty shoot out the Brisbane Roar crushed the Central Coast Mariners 4 to 2.


WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS....

This is amazing, as last year the Roar finished second from last in the league.


I have some fears that this has given Justice unrealistic expectations as this is the first year we have followed any professional sports team closely, and the results were rather amazing. Having said that, BEST FINALS GAME I have ever been to!
