One of the most fun parts was trying to make our own football field decoration! I must be honest and say that 90% of the work was done by Greg, turns out he's very creative AND very perfection-oriented, a lethal combo in the crafting world. I recently told Greg that one of my favorite Superbowl memories from when I was young was going over to a family friend's house seeing homemade decorations like a football field tablecloth and little football players made out of paper and popsicle sticks. Well the night before the party Greg surprised me with the materials to make our very own football field! Here it is in all it's glory....
Yes, I swear to you we made it with our blood, sweat, and tears.
The evidence...
The obligatory cheesy pose next to my contribution - graffiti writing on our other tablecloth
We bought a little game where you hit the football guy's head to make him kick the ball. Obligatory cheesy pose #2. Can you see the ball? I think Greg even scored a field goal in this shot.
Time to party!
Little miss Avery loved exploring everything!
It's really hard to look cool in 3D glasses. Fortunately everything looks better in a group. These guys actually looked pretty cool!
My mom was like a human jungle gym!
As suspected, the kids enjoyed the toys more than the game.
Good times! Too bad the Cards lost. Amazingly everyone at the party was rooting for them!
