Super Bowl

P. and I went to the best Super Bowl Party ever. It was at our church and they didn't miss a beat. We didn't have anything else to do so I thought we would go check it out for the first half or so. Boy am I glad we did. It was so much fun! The best part of it for me was all the food. A hungry pregnant woman's dream come true. Heaven on earth for an expecting mom.

We arrived just before kick-off with our Sara Lee raspberry pie in hand and walked into a REAL Super Bowl party. The first thing I noticed was all the food. There were about 9 huge tables full of party foods. Subway subs, pizza sticks, nachos, chili, cornbread, chips, salsa, popcorn, meats, cheeses, 7 layer dip, popcorn, and desserts galore. Any dessert you could want. They had a keg of root beer, frozen drinks, soda, and hot chocolate. I ate, and ate......and ate. I was so happy.

They decked out the place with balloons, streamers, wall hangings, and tons of Patriots and Giants stuff. They had games, drawings, and cool giveaways. We didn't win anything but that's ok. The games for the kids were so awesome. What a great place to take your family for the big game. They had a Wii, Guitar Hero, Dance Dance Revolution, Ping Pong, Dodge Ball, Air Hockey, football throwing game, punting game, and then the normal church building entertainment/game room open. The game was projected on the screen like the slides during a service and P. and I sat at a high bar table and watched what I thought was one of the best Super Bowl games since the 49ers last won. I really wasn't that excited about the game and thought for sure the Patriots would win, big. The game came down to the last minute and the Giants pulled out an amazing win. It was such a great night. I had so much fun. I can't wait to do it again next year!
