Super BOWL Sunday!

We had a fun Superbowl Sunday!  We typically host 11th and 12th graders at our house for a campaigners-style small group on Sunday evenings.  Its usually around 6-10 kids and we meet after our kids are in bed...usually.  Once in a while, we don't get the kids to sleep in time and then its a but chaotic, but our kids love being able to see the "big kids" when they come.  I always bake cookies, so that's an extra bonus if our kids are awake for one!  For Superbowl Sunday this week, we knew the students would want to watch the game with family or friends, so we opted for our own SuperBOWL party at the bowling alley after church.  Our kids had a great time and it was fun to do something different with the group!

Bowling brothers

Eden had a ramp and she LOVED being a part of the action!!


Then after bowling, we had a special visitor: PAPA!  My mom was away for the week, so we invited Papa over for snacks, pizza and Super Bowl watching!  He came with some treats and goodies for the kids, so they were extra pumped!
Eden is Papa's girl...

and she has him wrapped around her finger!  Look at this scene: Eden directed Papa to lay down with her blanket and a birthday cake on his tummy.  Oh Eden...  Papa was sure a good sport!

We made some flags to cheer on the Broncos and the Seahawks!

Bennett chose the Seahawks and Eden chose the Broncos.  Logan asked for his flag to be double sided (fair-weather fan: if one team was losing, he could switch!).

Before the game was over, we got pjs on and said goodbye to Papa.  It wasn't a very exciting game, so it wasn't too hard to go to bed early.  Thanks for joining us Papa!!  We love you!
