Best Day of the Year!

 

When Groundhog's Day and the day the Seahawks win the Superbowl fall on the same day, it becomes the best day. Ever. 

 

As you might know, we love Groundhog's Day around here. 

 

The first thing we do in the morning is to look online and see Punxsutawney Phil and if he saw his shadow or not. This year we discussed how cool it would be if we could go to Punxsutawney, PA and be there in person  to see Phil.  That would be so cool!  The only thing that dampened the mood of the day was that the pesky groundhog saw his shadow--6 more weeks of winter!  Bummer.  We are ready for Spring.

 

 

We went over to our friends house to watch the Super Bowl and had a great time.

 

To most of the country, they would say that this Super Bowl wasn't too exciting due to the fact that the Hawks destroyed the Denver, Broncos 43-8.  But to us it was BEAUTIFUL!!  What a perfect way to finish off the season.

 

There was enough candy, snacks, and food to feed a large army and Lucy was loving it!

 

The girls loved the half time show and DANCED, DANCED, DANCED!

 

 

By the end of the night we were tired! What a day!!

 

The Superbowl parade was on Wednesday in Seattle.  Mitch and I had such hard time deciding if we should take the kids.  It would be such a cool thing to see but the weather was literally 18 degrees and to get a spot on the parade route it was going to be hours and hours of waiting and standing.  Mitch also had a ton of work at work to do and to go would mean taking the day off. We finally decided not to go. The kids (Cam) was really disappointed but we watched it on TV and cheered!  At school most of the kids were absent and the ones that did show up watched it there.  The final numbers said about 700,000 people showed up for the parade.  Next time...we are going!
