But we do do the Super Bowl.
I'm sure that football fanatics think this is annoying, but it's true. We like the Super Bowl. We used to watch the Super Bowl solely for the commercials, but within the last few years, we've actually started to watch the game in its entirety. And we've enjoyed it.
It's one more reason to have a little celebration. To be creative and do something special with the kids. Create memories that hopefully will last a lifetime. And there are just so many fun ideas on Pinterest!
So this year, when Jack came home on Friday talking about how his class voted on the team they thought would win, either the "Seagulls or the Blancos,"he was excited to hear that we were going to have a little Super Bowl party.
Hannah always thinks this means that it's her birthday and that lots of people are coming over. I explained that it was just going to be us, and she seemed okay with this idea.
In fact, she got a little bit of what she wished for because Aunt Jessica came over to visit earlier in the day, and she decided to stay and watch the Super Bowl with us. We had a really good time, even if our cheese platter didn't turn out the way we intended :)
Here's how the cheese platter should've looked:
Here's how ours looked:
Jack and Hannah decorated helmets:
My oh-so-fancy chalkboard:

We had lots of fun, and I know that next year, the kids will look forward to our version of a kiddie Super Bowl party!
