A Great Day

today we went and saw the US soccer team practice. It is a beautiful day in Tampa and very sunny. We were able to watch the team play for about a half and hour, then the team came and greeted the fans who had been allowed in to watch. There was a team of wheelchair soccer players and us. Then Amy from USSoccer arranged for Landon Donovan to play on the field with the boys. They had a wonderful time shooting goals and talking with him. He was such a nice guys to play with them for about 10 minutes after a long practice. Then Amy went and got Kasey Keller to play with them. As you know Mason is a BIG Kasey Keller fan and was so happy. We'll post the photos and video tomm when we return home to NY. We go to the game tomm at 12 and then home.

Wow! What a mood booster, playing with the US soccer team! You guys are all amazing, Mason most of all. I am so impressed with his bravery and glad to hear he won't have to have a dedicated line. We still miss you all and are sending out positive thoughts and prayers for the defeat of this nasty enemy. Use the force, Mason!! XOKathie, Jon, Nick, Madison, and Jojo Christian
