{sporting my red and gold -ish}
I decided to do one of those "Day in Photos" posts, and thought that yesterday was a good choice, seeing as it was the Super Bowl and all, and I don't know, I guess some people (namely my husband) get really excited about that day. For some reason. Something about large men throwing a ball around a field and ramming into each other a lot. But, well, I was promised good food and a lot of soup (more on that in a second) so I agreed to it. ;) Plus, I don't know if you know this, but the 49ers were in it, so I mean, that's Zack's fave team and all. Everyone in northern california was very excited, to say the least. So. My Super Bowl Sunday, in pictures:
8 am. Wake up and read Jesus Calling. The best way to start every day.
8:30 am. I rode 15 miles on the spin bike! While watching Downton, of course.
{Kassie wasn't terribly impressed.}
10 am. Coffee, duh.
10-11 am. Emails, social media and planning for the week, while drinking my coffee. I really like the colour pink.
11 am. Drive through the country. Cows!!
Oh, hey!
Noon. Visit the boys at home.
They missed us.
1 pm. Paint my nails gold and O.P.I. Teenage Dream while watching DVR shows, namely Teen Mom 2.
3 pm. Get to the in law's Super Bowl party. Those deviled eggs are the best ever.
Half Time (a.k.a. Beyonce Time) soup. All home-made by the mom-in-law and absolutey incredible.
6:45 pm. These are our "lights out" faces. And also our faces at the end, because the 9ers didn't win. Boo.
So, about the soup. My parents-in-law have a "Soup-er" Bowl party every year, and my mom-in-law makes a bunch of different kinds of soup. I will pause for a moment so you can grasp just how cute that actually is. So, somehow she has actually turned this day that I used to never care about into a day that I kind of look forward to! This woman works miracles, I swear.
As for the 49ers, I have a good feeling about next year. ;)

Ahhh Soup-er Bowl too cute!!!
ReplyDeleteI tried my hardest to stay awake for the game( well for the half time show) but it started at 23.30 our time so I kinda fell asleep and missed It all :(
What a great post love that you done spin while watching Downtown Abbey xx
Oh wow, that would have been a late one for you, especially since it went longer than usual with a power outage! Yikes! You made the right decision: sleep > super bowl ;)

Looks like a great time! I've never been into american football (I prefer the true literal stuff) but I could probably get into it, because I like big sporting events in general :) As well as big bowls of Doritos... so maybe the Super Bowl and I are just meant to be? xxx
ReplyDeleteYeah, I never have gotten into football either, but my hubby loves it, so I’ve learned to kind of sort of enjoy it… sometimes. ;) and yes haha you are meant to be!
Deletexo
hahah this is awesome! I may have to try this out!

The fact that your in-laws do a "Souper Bowl" is amazing! Our local Habitat for Humanity put on a "Soup"er Bowl to raise money for their organization. It's actually pretty cool. They have the local schools and organizations paint and decorate ceramic bowls and then all the restaurants in the area donate a soup and you get to pick out a bowl then go around and taste all these different soups. It's actually really cool. I volunteered this year. Glad you had a good weekend!!
ReplyDeleteOh, that is so awesome!! I love that idea!

I love Jesus Calling!!! It's been my devotional book for a couple years now. My 8 year old daughter received Jesus Calling for kids for Christmas and she loves it. She loves finding, reading and highlighting all the verses in the bible that are used in the book :)
ReplyDeleteJust bought Jesus Calling.. I've heard great things
