So I get a call from my Mom a few weeks ago that went something like this:
Mom: " So I just bought this groupon for a catered superbowl
party from some place in westborough, MA."
Me: "okay......."
Mom: "So who's going to have a party??"
And just like that, we were hosting this years Superbowl festivities.....
Ava was so excited she tried on many different outfits.
but after a visit from her cousin, who set her straight,
she decided on this little number...
and I am especially proud of her accent pieces (i.e. the giant slim jim and D-fence head piece)
The only problem was that her jersey was actually one of Tyler's
which left me running around at every store I could think of
to try to find him a Patriots jersey......the day of the superbowl.....
I would have settled for Patriots ANYTHING but everyone was sold out!!
So I found this outfit, tucked behind piles of toddler clothing....
after convincing my 3-year-old son that Diego was a much better quarterback than Tom Brady....
it was a big hit!!
And so we had the usual suspects over....ate way too much....and drank until it looked like the Patriots were actually playing well!!!
We also had some new visitors this year....
9 month old twin boys Ian and Connor Tobey, who fit right in!!
and after my kids polished off two chocolate cupcakes....and the sugar set in....
these two weren't the only ones looking for a way out !!
And because the game started at 6:30pm....most of our guests left before the game even began!!
Leaving Me, Joe and my parents to enjoy Madonna's half-time show....
and may I say that my mother's comments during her performance
made hosting the party totally worth it!!
Maybe next year Patriots.....maybe next year!!
