Exciting! I have some cool pics of my son playing soccer this season. 🙂 Let me go through them, and see. Thanks for coming up with great ideas for the MKB!
I am really looking forward to this series. Australia made the world cup again, and now living in Croatia I am hoping that they too make it. CAN’T WAIT!
