SuperBowl Sunday!

You'll know it's SuperBowl Sunday at our house when Uncle Rick breaks out the deep fryer and starts makin' his famous Buffalo Wings!!!  In fact Celeste Wilson called from next door when she saw him starting in our backyard.  She wanted to "borrow" him and a cup of milk for her party!  

Along with the amazing wings, Rick also made homemade french fries and sweet potato fries. The wings were just hot enough to make your nose run (or was that a cold coming on), but then a spoonful of Grandma Margaret's yummy cole slaw cooled the fire down.  All his cooking along with the rest of our favorite SuperBowl treats were fabulous!!!  It's such a fun reason to celebrate with family!

A few years ago during SuperBowl halftime, we started letting the boys break a football pinata.  We hadn't done it for a few years, and decided that Eden needed to experience a pinata party.  However, the party store was sold out of football pinatas, so Jon picked out a colt pinata! 

Our colt, just like the Indianapolis Colts, took a beating!

I love this picture - Look closely, Eden's behind Grandma's shoulder grinning for the photo!

Uncle Rick started playing with Eden during the third quarter.  Little did he know, she was going to occupy him for the rest of the game!

"Again, again"

"One more time!"

Careful, she might puke on Carson!

Dog pile on Rick!

Eden hearts Uncle Rick!!!

(I wasn't thrilled with the summer nightgown that she insisted on wearing after the pinata, but you just can't argue with a two year old!)

Lucky Carson won both the 1st and final quarter jackpot.  This little boy pulled in $30 during our party! Don't spend it all in one place, Dude!

Thanks for cooking Rick and thanks to everyone for coming to our party.  It was "Super" again this year!!!

Happy SuperBowl Sunday!!!
