TIMBER(s)

In the last number of years I went from never watching soccer to sitting out in pouring rain watching soccer multiple days a week.

Then Portland decided to get rid of their triple A baseball team and start up a soccer team.

The Portland Timbers.

This year they went MLS and some of our friends are MAJORLY into it... think of it like us and our Ducks that might give you a better idea.  Anyhow they have taken us to a couple games and it is really fun and of course I like that the team colors are the same as the Oregon Ducks so picking what to wear is easy... since I have no Timbers gear.  My hubby has bought into the Timber Fever and has a hat and a t-shirt (Thank you AJ) that he wears with pride!

Now we even watch the Timbers on TV... and boy howdy did we ever get sucked in the the Women's World Cup this summer.  All 7 of us cuddled up on the couch watching all the games!  Good times!

Soccer has some pretty cool traditions and one of them is that when the teams walk onto the field they walk on with a kids team holding their hand.  I love it.
Photobucket their seats are first and second row... awesome for game watching... and super fun!

No people this is not an episode of what not to wear...:)  Gotta love him!
