Are you ready for some football?

We were invited to a Superbowl party at our friends the Walton's house. They are Colts fans, we are Saints fans. I think we all know how that turned out.

I must warn all of our friends, if you invite the Gourleys to your house for a major sport event, your team will lose, sorry, that's just how it is. I don't think we will get many more invitations.

Yes, Aidan is wearing goggles. He told me he needed to wear them because all superheroes wear these.

My potluck contribution - fruit platter in a football shaped dish. I do not believe in fruit salad because I don't like when the fruit mingles together - too many juices and it changes the flavor. Plus I'm allergic to pineapples and I do not like honeydew melon and both are always in fruit salad (they are just filler fruit and we all know it - so please stop using them). Everyone must have loved my presentation because...

Aforementioned fruit platter 1.5 hours later.

Official food to represent the Indianapolis Colts

We also had jambalaya and I brought cake pops and these chocolate covered pretzels in Mardi Gras colors. I love New Orleans and had to represent. I also brought our Mardi Gras beads, which my kids refused to wear, but all the other kids loved them. Just to be clear, I purchased the beads at Michaels Craft Store, I did not "earn" them, thank you.



Reese loved playing with all of their toys including their dollhouse. She had a big night - she successfully used the potty. It was a shock to all of us. Aidan even told her how proud he was of her. We will start potty training boot camp next week.
