Welcome to Blue Monday hosted by Smiling Sally from Florida. Each Monday we’re invited to post something blue to share. Click over to Sally’s to see more blue or to join in with something blue on your blog.
Both of my sons gave me blue gifts this Christmas. My 2nd born son Dan gave me that soft Adidas warm up jacket that I’ve enjoyed wearing already. The Soccer jersey from my firstborn Josh and his wife Laura is an away jersey for our very own Seattle Sounders FC. This year is the first year Seattle has a MLS Soccer team. Josh bought season tickets. My boys know their mom learned to love soccer after years of driving them to and watching them play at school and in special leagues. Soccer became my favorite sport to watch. You’ll catch me watching English league soccer during the week on cable. When World Cup Soccer comes around I try to catch every single game televised even if they are on at 4:00 a.m. One sport I’m sure to watch during the Olympics is Soccer.
Thanks for visiting my Blue today and I hope you all have a great week.
Photobucket is holding all my photos from 2007 to 2015 hostage and has replaced them all with ugly black and grey boxes asking for a ransom to have them re-published. Such a frustrating bother as I go through each post to delete the ugly boxes.

Cool! And I learned something new about you today. I didn’t realize how much you enjoy soccer.
Nice! I remember seeing the jersey but not the warm up jacket. Happy Blue almost Monday to you!
Ellen, you have two mighty sweet boys, and I love the blue! I am wearing blue sweats right now! I need to be wearing my jammies. LOL!
XO,
Sheila 🙂

They both look so comfy…..and the jersey…Hey a girl’s gotta support her team!!
You’ve raised those boys right; they think about what you’d like for a gift. I’ve learned a bit more about you today. You’re the Ultimate soccer mom! Happy Blue Monday.
Thanks for a wonderful blue post,and a great way to share info about you!
I didn’t know you were such a soccer fan! Those are thoughtful gifts, and that Adidas jacket looks warm and snuggly.
Hi!
I really like that Blue Warm-up Jacket! It looks really warm and snugly! Have a great day!

It sounds like your sons knew exactly what you would love when shopping for your gifts! You are all set! 🙂
Wow your boys know you and what you like! I’m a sports fan too, but I tend to lean towards football and basketball.
Enjoy your week!
What sweet gifts from your sons! My oldest graduates from Georgia Tech this spring….and he gave me a fleece from the school as an early Christmas gift….. makes me feel hugged by him when I wear it…and somehow, a little warmer than I might have been if I had purchased it for myself!
An honest to goodness Soccer Mom!

Hi Ellen
Two lovely and snuggly blue gifts from your guys. Isn’t that special. I guess you would have to be into soccer having been so active with it while your boys were growing up. Nice. Thats very special you did that with them…hence the lovely shirts. Enjoy.
hope you’ve had a great day.

Happy Blue Monday
