July 9 is Argentina's Independence Day. To celebrate, this past July 9th we hung the Argentine Flag, wore the National Seleccion Soccer Jersey (worn at the World Cup)and Lincoln actually learned the words to the Himno Nacional (National Anthem), courtesy of YouTube. It is a long and sometimes pretty National Anthem. You are listening to it now. Maybe in a few years, Lane will understand what is going on!
We also found tons of cool videos of Cordoba, Argentina on YouTube that Lincoln had never seen before, which brought back a flood of good memories. It also got us pumped to make a trip down there! We have a goal to get down there for the dedication of the new Cordoba, Argentina temple in a couple of years. It will be right next door to Lincoln's mission home!
Oh, and we are dogsitting for Uncle Ron and Aunt Ann, so Lane has a new best friend--their golden labrador, Luke. They have so much fun together that they tire each other out!
