Super Bowl Par-Tay!!!
I made chocolate dipped strawberries and then used white icing to make laces like little footballs. Cute and yummy! (Please excuse Mr. Booger Boy here, he and Gavin are sickies!)
I made boneless Buffalo wings and 2 delicious dipping sauces! The trick to the breading is keeping one hand in "dry" and the other in "wet" ingredients. Makes it so much easier to manage.
These went fast, too fast. I had to hurry and defrost more chicken to make another batch. They were a huge hit! I made homemade Ranch dressing to dip them into and I also made homemade BBQ hot sauce. Very easy and yummy recipe!
Another item the boys wanted were bacon wrapped shrimp. While at church the shrimp marinated and it truly made all the difference! They were yummy!
Sliders and 7-layer dip were also made and eaten, but I forgot to snap some shots of that. I also was so into the game I forgot to take some shots of all of us watching it.
The commercials were good, not great. I LOVED the Ferris Bueller commercial, the Hunger Games and Avenger's movie clip, the Doritos's with that grandma and baby. AND of course my favorite part was the halftime show featuring MADONNA!! My fav! It was a great, entertaining show. But, the lip-syncing about killed me. (I guess if you're not singing with a band it would be hard to really sing at that venue?) Loved the oldies, but her new song. Hmm...A 52 year old cheer leader, with Nicky Minja?
Still, Madonna rocks. I'd love to see her again on person!

Super Bowl Party!!!
Once again, we hosted our annual SUPER BOWL PARTY!!! It was a lot of fun. (We did miss our friends from AZ though!!!) I made a 7-layer dip, boneless buffalo wings and a couple other dips. My cousins, the Boyce's, came and made a fruit dip, lemon bars, pigs in a blanket and these pizza rolls. So good! The Vail's came and also brought some yummy dip and a dessert. At half time we were joined by some other family. Good food. Good game. Good time!!

Super Bowl + Cardinals = dumb mistakes
Aww man! It was so exciting that we made it to the SUPER BOWL!!! The Cardinals, to the super bowl! A-Maz-Ing. It was a fun and very entertaining game. We almost had them! There were a few DUMB little mistakes that cost us the game. Bummer. Towards the end there we were all screaming and jumping around the living room. We must of looked like crazy people. The kids would stop and just look at us funny. It was cute.
