Hopp Schwiiz!

Posted by Picasa


We're in the midst of the Euro Cup 2008 which translates to Swiss flags EVERYWHERE! They're on peoples' cars, houses, gardens, boats, businesses, bodies - you name it. We couldn't help but catch the Euro Cup fever so we dressed Kelsey up in her Swiss onesie and watched the game at home (tickets are OUTRAGEOUS and crowds are HUGE in the city). We grilled up some cervelas Swiss style (cutting the ends so the middle doesn't split) and ate them with our Hopp Suisse ketchup (Suisse is the French way to say Switzerland, Schweiz is the German way). Kelsey enjoyed getting up close to the action. Unfortunately, they lost last night and tonight's game so it doesn't look good for them. But nonetheless, HOPP SCHWEIZ (go Switzerland)!

Cute picture! It looks like Kelsey is really interested in the game, maybe she'll be a soccer player!

Jess, I can't remember who asked what Hopp Schweiz means, but now I know it means Lets Go Switzerland. To bad they lost, but since my husband is German he isn't sad.

Love the pictures! It's so fun that you're in another country! Cameron has been watching the Euro Cup as well. He even wore his soccer jersey to watch one of the games!

Kelsey is so cute in her Swiss onsie! I can't believe she's almost walking on her own now. I'm so excited to see her in Vigo (because we WILL go together :)

We watched the end of the game too. Only one point scored the entire game, which keeps Jacob in utter confusion over why the Europeans are so entertained by this game along. It was really fun to watch though. The food sounds the best though. . . my mouth is watering.
