England vs. USA in the World Cup! Normally I'm the cool, interesting American, but this day I was the hated enemy. I was tempted to put on a fake English accent when I went out shopping. We went over Pete's parents' house (you know, the in-laws...) and watched the game. His mom made these cupcakes and also decorated the house - and their grandkids - for the event.
Uncle Pete brought craft supplies for the kids to make flags. His 3 year old niece chose to be on the American side, which was great, and particularly funny watching her jump on the couch shouting "America! America!" over and over.

I was thinking of you when Germany won last night! I'm glad Germany doesn't have to play the US =P Are Englanders as crazy as the Germans about the World Cup? After Germany won there were people walking the streets blowing horns and cars honking until midnight or so!
