Matt couldn't decide where his allegiences lay... with West Ham United (English Premier League), or with the Socceroos (Australia), so he wore bits and pieces of both!

Matt and I, along with Matt's family, went to the soccer (or what some of you call football) on Tuesday night to see Australia play Argentina. My first live soccer experience, I can say that watching it in person is a bit more exciting than watching it in 2D on the TV (but don't tell Matt that, otherwise he'll have me watching soccer every weekend :P)
Australia lost, but it was fun anyway :)
(P.S. - Matt 'invited' his family to our house tonight before they head off to the airport. Considering it will be around dinnertime, I should have something prepared to eat. "You can whip up something quick, can't you?" asks Matt. Quick and easy, for six mouths? I'll figure something out!)
Nice pics. Is the MCG the same place where the Melbourne Demons play. If so when I first moved there a long time ago we lived in the Hilton across the street for a month. It took almost that long to figure out that Aussie Rules was being played there on Saturdays. I guess we were dumg "Yanks' at that time.
