Super Bowl Sunday



Super Bowl Sunday; it was a fun day and the game, unlike many, was really great right up to the end. Even I who was invested in neither team was easily caught up in all the excitement. Chris invited half a dozen friends over to hang out at our house, watch the game, and eat. Our family room was packed with youthful energy which was nice.

Typically I get pumped for Super Bowl Sunday for three reasons:

1. The Food: Denny makes 7 layer dip which we enjoy at the start of the game. By half time we are eating bratwurst with grilled onions. And yesterday we polished it off with a pecan pie from Jim Goode's in Houston (thanks, J.T.). The dip, chips and brats are tradition but we may add pie to the list of "must haves". in the future. It was so good.

2. The Ads: They were cute this year, always are. My favorite was the Fed Ex advertisement.






3. The National Anthem: This year Jordin Sparks looking nervous, pulled off a good performance nonetheless. That she is so young makes her moxie all that more admirable. You Go Girl!
