We are underdogs vs Belgium, but that teams plays inconsistent, and is also somewhat injured, so we have a shot. They are also missing a guy due to a red card suspension (Defour). So we are catching them at the right time. We will need to play an amazing game, hope the team puts it all together on Tuesday. <br /><br />The group stage went exactly as I thought it would - beat Ghana, tie Portugal, lose Germany.

W...Love your new pic, where did you get them taken?<br />We went to a local pub with the kids (yea, we are THOSE parents) to watch the game since we don't have cable. GREAT game, although a bummer we didn't come out on top.

He looked so confused and groggy. I felt bad so I tried to keep my yelling a little bit quieter for the rest of the game.
