So our tradition is to tivo (tevo?) the Superbowl and then do a big party for family night on Monday and watch it together. Part of the fun of this is to not find out who has won before we watch the game. You would be AMAZED at the lengths that we go to to not find out (Josh especially). It is a lot of fun. We were rooting for the Packers this year (can you tell?) Josh is a big fan of Donald Driver, so he was the main reason that we were going for them (we are Broncos fans).
So I have a secret, well, I think most of you know it, but I just realized it. I have a problem with simplifying things. I try to make a production out of just about EVERYTHING. I LOVE to plan parties or make a party out of just about anything. Well, I have a ton on my plate right now (planning a party among other things), and I finally simplified something! I had all sorts of fantasies about what we were going to eat, I was going to decorate a huge table (of which we wouldn't eat 1/4 of the stuff there, yes that usually happens). Well, I got a little overwhelmed because I was working on a few other projects during the day and I just let it all go (I never do that! So excited!) We grilled
these wonderful burgers and the rest of the food was SIMPLE!
I don't know why I go so crazy over everything because Josh and the boys LIKE simple (I am not saying I am going to go simple every time, but it is now an option).
The boys watched as much of the game as we would let them (it got too late to finish it). It was such a fun night!
Cute husband/daddy who we all adore and love whatever he loves. I never thought I would enjoy the Superbowl as much as I do.
So the big hit of any night at our house is popcorn. If it is movie night WITH POPCORN, it is the best thing in the world. Again, they love simple.
We got them these cute little popcorn containers for Christmas from the Target dollar section. They were in their stockings. Santa scored big with these...he must know them or something...
We had so much fun. I think I end 3/4 of my posts like that, but it's true!
