Green and Gold Glory

Yes, it was the Sunday of all Sunday's. And for the record I get extra special twinges of happiness knowing there are a few loyal readers out there that are Vikings or Bears fan...so for you I will try not to lay it toooo think.

A Super Bowl party was NOT an option for Nate and I as we actually wanted to watch the game. This is true for the first time in years. We had our neighbors over as one of them is a huge Packers fan. Now, Sina is the packer fan, but I have to give mad props to her husband, Ryan, who loves his Vikings but root for the Packers all the same. He is a rare breed as most Vikings fans are just cruel and merciless. :) He won MVP fan in my opinion.

Even more so than Hanson Packer Fan #3:



And I like to think that our dedication to the true spirit of Packer tailgating was a good luck charm that helped lead to the win. Nate muscled our grill out of many feet of snow, and fired that sucker up! And oooohhh the smells that wafted down. I forgot how amazing grilled food was. Especially grilled brats.



It was a joyous Packer evening. There was a little bit of swearing. Maybe some nail biting. A whole lot of Cheering and at the end of the came loud screams of happiness! :)
So, how do you sum up a post that is 14 years in the making.



I love the Packers.
Aaron Rodgers could quite possible be our first born sons name.
The Packers Rule, the Vikings Drool.
The Bears still suck.

and

Damn, it feels good to be a Packer.

Ben Hopelessburger and the steelers let me down. I see it was a bobble head superbowl starring aaron bobble head rogers. Nice grillage Nate! I have switched from old school to gas mostly for the ease of use since I converted the grill to run on natural gas and plumbed a gas line out to the deck. I now can grill year round. Careful on the namage for the sprout...there is a guy in Rockford who was cruelly branded at birth with the name Vince Lombardi (guess what team his parents worshipped). Vince hates the packers and is a Vikings fan.

Forget the game...that bump! I saw you friday and I swear you did not have that. I would like to claim some credit by feeding you spaghetti and garlic bread. Or maybe it was that scoop of gelato :-)
