Superbowl 2012









Last year we had planned a big superbowl pary, made tons of food, then around noon Gabe started with a  GI bug.  This year we opted to skip the big party and watch the game ourselves, largely because we actually wanted to watch the game and not entertain. There have been lots of GI bugs going around at work and we were both joking about a repeat of last year.... Needless to say, Gabe woke up on Saturday and said, "you are not going to believe this"..... he was then quarantined to the cellar for the next 24 hours.  Thankfully my mom was visiting, so the kids and I still had a very fun weekend;)  Gabe was back to feeling better in time for the big game so we had a "party" with the kids. Gabe, Noah & James put on a puppet show for Ben. We made smoothies (Annie, these are the frozen blackberries you picked for us last summer:)), followed by pizza and home made french fries. Gabe has been "joking" about buying deep fryer for years, but more so in the last few months, so my parents brought him their old one and he was very eager to use it. We also dug out the homemade mozzarella sticks we had made for the last superbowl, which is what James is eating in the frozen form here......
