This summer has been incredibly busy for me! I have been on the road for the past 4 weeks so you can imagine how much luggage I have been hauling around with me! ha ha.
Things have been going very well. We started our send off series in Cleveland, Ohio! It is always fun to get back to the Midwest especially in the muggy summer. We were there during the Cavs vs. Spurs series for the NBA championship so it was a great atmosphere. We played China in the Cleveland Browns Stadium and we won 2-0.
From Cleveland, we flew to New Jersey to train for a few days before moving into New York City. We stayed right in Time Square. It was interesting traveling in a charter bus trying to get through the city. It was not fun for those of us who get bus sick when the bus…stops, goes, stops, goes! But, it was a lot of fun staying in the heart of the city. We played Brazil at Giants Stadium and we won 2-0. We launched our new Gold uniforms so it was a very exciting time for our team.
While I was staying in the city, NikeTown- New York covered the outside windows of their store with a picture of me and my teammates. It was incredible to see pictures on NikeTown! It was a dream come true for me to see giant pictures while walking down 5th Avenue. Pretty cool!
After New York, I flew to Kalamazoo for my camp. As always, I really enjoyed the camp. Thank you to everyone who made it such a success. I also got a lot of wedding stuff done while I was in town. My favorite part of the wedding activities was going cake tasting in the morning….I was on a sugar high the entire day!
I am enjoying a little break during the 4th of July. I am spending time with my family which I always enjoy. I am heading to Hartford, Connecticut in a few days for our game against Norway.
Thank you for your continued support!
Happy 4th of July and I will keep you updated!
