Jack's birthday and FIFA.

I've not talked about it much, but Jack is still crazy-over-the-moon in love with soccer. He's now played in eight different leagues, and he just wrapped up a week-long training camp last week. He love, love, loves it, and I couldn't be happier for him. It's also insanely fun to watch his skills improve so quickly - he's really good!

Thanks in part to all of you, my faithful code gifters, I just ordered these two items from MyCokeRewards.com as part of Jack's birthday gifts this summer:

- Coca-Cola Africa-inspired Soccer Ball
- Coca-Cola and FIFA World Cup T-shirt

The ball is a size 5, and that's a step up from what his leagues currently play (size 4). He has an orange ball (naturally) right now, but this will be a great, colorful ball to grow into in future play. In addition, he couldn't be more excited for the FIFA World Cup to start - thank you, Disney Channel, for constantly promoting it with Phineas & Ferb. :-)

Somehow, I didn't know you had an Xbox 360. Are you on LIVE?

Actually, I have PS3. The XBox360 controller is way too big for my hands. I suggested the 360 because I know you have it.
