Super Bowl!

Whew! What a weekend. Mel & I attended a wedding of some of her friends from high school on Saturday. What a great time! Mel got to see and hang out with a bunch of buds from high school and catch up on old times. Of course, Mel's friends are my friends too, but shes known them for a long time.
After the wedding, we all went out to Tiki Bob's in Indy....and had a blast! Normally I'm not up on those dance type bars cuz they're too smokey/loud/crowded. But that night, with the group we had, I must admit it was pretty fun. We got back that night and fell asleep.

The next day was of course Super Bowl Sunday. We had a party to get ready for and it literally took all day to get ready. Mel & I went to Target to stock up on necessities and grab the ingredients for the food. When we got back, Mel started on the food and I started cleaning anything I saw. I didn't get far when I realized --- WE DONT HAVE THE SURROUND SOUND SET UP FOR THE GAME!?! I got to work. Hooked up the reciever, ran the wires, tested the speakers....we were ready to ROCK! After all that was done, I cleaned the bedroom and vacuumed. Just as Mel finished in the kitchen, my brother and his fiance showed up.....the first guests had arrived!

We had about 22-25 people in all when you count the people who stopped in to say hey and didn't stay long. Lots of Mel's friends from the wedding stopped by and most of my friends were there. The HD was clear, the sound was pumpin', the party was JAMMIN'!

I really didn't care who won, because the Colts weren't in the game. Glad to see Jerome Bettis get his Super Bowl Ring, but I wouldnt have been mad if the Seahawks won either. I really just wanted a good game and I think I got that. It wasn't a blowout or completely dominated by one team or another so thats all you can ask for, right?

Oh yeah, and the commercials. I have to say, I think the commercials were pretty decent this year. The beer ones were good, as always. I liked the rotating fridge commercial. That one was funny. On and in the early going, the Hide & Seek beer commercial was really good. Also the guys on top of their houses, drinking beer...that was yet another good one. I think I liked the "little horse that could" for sentimental value, it got a resounding, "awwwwwww". Even the "dont judge too quickly" commercials were good too. The one where the doctor zapped the fly and just as the patients family came in the room, he said, "....well that killed him." HAHA

Of course, the beer commercials ruled the Bowl again, but there were some definite ones that were just as good.

All in all, it was a great weekend. Had fun with friends and family and that is always on my mind. Relaxing, having fun, and a little football & food helps.
