Super Bowl Weekend

Last weekend was the second best holiday compared to Thanksgiving with food. Every year we plan a buffet to lay out and this year we had hot wings, chips and dip, and a bunch of other goodie snacks.

Saturday we were invited to some of our friends for a spaghetti dinner. The dinner started at 4:00 and I had a meeting with Parks at 1:00 so it would all work out. My meeting with Parks was great and we were out of there by 3:00. That gave us plenty of time to get from the west end of Billings to the Heights.

We found their house without any problems. However, the side streets in Billings are not any better than the side streets in Hardin, good thing we took the pickup. We had a great time with the dinner, there were two other couples there besides us and our hosts. She made stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer and they were sure good. I got the recipe and made some for our Super Bowl food fest. We had a great time with our friends, they are biker friends and we were all lamenting on how bad the weather is and we can't get the bikes out for rides. This time last year we were able to ride around town on our bikes.

Super Bowl Sunday arrived. Nothing to do in the morning but just wait, so I did my normal Sunday morning routine. Once I got home, then it was time to start cooking and making the house smell good. Watched all the pre-game hoopla then settled down to watch a good game.

In our hearts we really wanted the Saints to win mainly because they have never won the championship title ever, but our heads said the the Colts would win. Imagine our surprise and delight when the Saints did win and what a great game we were able to watch. Once of the best Super Bowls in a long time.

Gary will be going through football withdrawals, but soon we will have March Madness. Football will start again in just 7 more months with pre-season. Not to mention he will be able to watch the draft in April.
