4 dads, 4 moms, 7 kids and 1 football game

Is it old news to post about the Superbowl now? If it is, oh well! Yesterday was a very busy day. I didn’t even get to do my Wii Fit workout. : ( I had so much fun at our Steelers Superbowl Party I just had to post. I even have photographic evidence thanks to Freckle.

It was a great game. My husband loved that he got to actually enjoy watching the Steelers in the Superbowl and not be wrong about virtually everything that came out of his mouth (like the last Steelers Superbowl with my dad).

Pittsburgh's own, Iron City Beer, was present.


The kids had a blast and played for 7 hours straight. And they say homeschooled kids lack socialization. I say p’sha!


The moms, well, we sat around the dining room table drinking wine, eating a bit, talking a lot and Freckle and I…well we knitted…and knitted…and knitted and oh yes, we knitted.


I kept an eye on the score of the game and the time remaining. And for the last two minutes of a very good and a very close game everyone was on their feet. Shouting at the TV and cheering as the Pittsburgh Steelers won the Superbowl.

It was their 6th Superbowl win (the only team ever to win 6 Superbowls). And I say again – GO STEELERS!! And in the end, I had a very happy husband. : )

And thank you to our friends for joining us for such a fun day.

Go Steelers!!

Here we go, Steelers, here we go! Pittsburgh's goin' to the Superbowl.

Anyone who knows my husband knows that he is completely and totally ecstatic that the Steelers are in the Superbowl. He is a Pittsburgh boy, born and raised. He is a football fan through and through. He knows and loves the game like nobody I know. Still he gives up much of his football time to be with our daughter on Sundays, the one day I work and the one day he doesn't.

The last time the Steelers were in the Superbowl we happened to be visiting my parents. It was NOT a good time for my husband, even though the Steelers won. I felt so bad for him that the one game he gets to watch was ruined by the person he had to watch with that year.

This year we are having a Superbowl party with our dearest friends. Princess will love it because she will have friends to play with while Daddy watches football - the one game a year that he actually gets to watch. My husband (the Lizard King) is preparing Pittsburgh style sausage and found Iron City Beer (Pittsburgh's own) at New Seasons (our local grocery store). It promises to be an exciting and delicious day! Go Steelers!
