Brazil vs Netherlands Final..... GASP!
Firstly Id like to thank the readers that are logging in every Wed to check if I've put a post up yet, you are also at the very top of my apology list :( Sorry for not being prompt, I shall blame 'World Cup Fever'...
So here is my Oranje Rants from over the last few weeks, so you can see my very quick decent into full-blown Netherlands supporter status ;) Actually, by reading my first status report, I'd say I was already there to start with....
Sat June 14th
0700 - Hup Holland! Got my KNVB top on and my supporters scarf. Let's get this rematch underway! — 
watching Spain vs. Netherlands.
watching Spain vs. Netherlands.
0744 - Goal!!!!!
0831 - Wooo, the Spanish are not happy...
0842 - Yeah, don't think anyone was expecting this... :)
0900 - Well
don't think anyone expected that hiding! The Spanish defence and attack
was certainly lacking, can't say the same for the Dutch — feeling proud.
1522 - hehe after that awarded penalty this morn, I certainly thought about this....

1630 - I could wait til blog day, but its too good,
must share now. Just to help you understand a little better about the
amazingly good mood that all your dutch friends were in last Tuesday https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5Iwc-s9i-I Ja, we een beetje gek
June 18th
1930 - Lizzie and I with our Oranje nails, Hup Holland!
Thur June 19th
0430 - Yay a Robben goal, if Netherlands progress enough we may have a golden boot contender
Must say I'm impressed with the Aussie play, they are being careful,
and I'd say they've done their research, they deserve the current tied
score. Also I have picked my most hated player of the cup Martins Indi,
way to hotheaded and hollywoody....
0455 - Not
sure how I feel about Cahills yellow, seemed a little harsh... Sad that
he misses the next important game. And if Martins Indi is actually
injured I feel a 'little' bad for bad mouthing him before...
0600 - Yeah, well done Aussie, hope you give it to those Spaniards next game! Now 0600, so back to bed til Lizzie gets me up
0855 - So Spain's out.... Didn't pick that
Tue June 24th
0355 - Oh wow, the support runs deep, forgot to set my alarm but still woke up in time! —watching Netherlands vs. Chile.

0405 - My goodness Medel, If you are gonna complain about getting whacked in the face, at least hold the right part....
0430 - Compared to previous games, this ref seems little light on the whistle (both ways)
0440 - I'm always impressed with Robbens sure-footedness, he very rarely seems to take tumble
0555 -What a surprising and beautiful end to the group stage! A very decisive group B winner. — feeling excited. Now to see who we play... Well back to bed for a couple of hours first
1000 - Mexico it is!
So next game is 0400 on Monday morn (getting sick of the 0400 games :(...) It should be a tough one, but Im expecting it to be enjoyable and hopefully present a victorious Dutch side :) Plus will be good to have the "Flying Dutchman" RVP back. And well done to dutch fans! You make the world cup a brighter place :) http://www.buzzfeed.com/danoshinsky/netherlands-fans-are-awesome
For those of you more interested in other news -
Strider (4 month puppy) gets his pin out of his leg 2moro, we are excited, but also not looking forward to the cage rest again :(
Lizzie (daughter 3 on Aug 1st) is successfully toilet trained (finally), and we are looking forward to seeing the plans for her tiny (smaller than our bathroom) bedroom 2moro night.
I pulled a muscle from pushing myself a little to hard over the weekend, midwife thinks I need to slow down a tad (hard to do tho), took Monday off work to recover, but looking forward to finishing up in 5 weeks :D
