XLVI

In case you hadn't heard, the 46th Super Bowl will be played here in Indianapolis. Giants Vs. Patriots. Kind of a big deal. Would have been a bigger deal if the Saints could have pulled it off. Drew Brees coming home to play? Now that woulda been a good time. It was close, came down to the last 20 seconds of that fateful game....*sigh*. With a Super Bowl comes the NFL Experience. Or as we like to refer to it: The hurry up and wait experience. Still trying to decide if it was worth the money...but, I think the longer we look back on it, the more it will become worth the money. Cuz, really, how many times in our life are we this close to the big game? The air in downtown Indy is electric. There is so much to see and experience. Waiting in line for an hour to throw a pig skin with hundreds of onlookers, kinda cool. However, we opted to not wait two hours to kick a field goal. But, we would have waited in line all day to experience the zip line that literally flies over the Super Bowl Village. Too bad for us and thousands of other football junkies, the zip line is continuously sold out. It was still fun to watch people fly over your head though. Oh, and walking on a real turf ? That was fun! The boys did what came naturally to them when their feet hit the green stuff:

We've said it all along,
Logan is a bull. Dude can get you to the ground in no time flat. Just ask his dad.


Lukas is crazy about the Saints. Namely, Drew Brees. #9. First thing he did with some of his Christmas money was get his hands on a jersey. He bought that jersey exactly one hour, sixteen minutes, and 23 seconds before Mr. Brees broke that little passing record. Good timing son, good timing. If you had waited much longer you may not have been able to afford that jersey.
We did try to see the Lombardi trophy up close. But a three hour wait? Naw. We did see it's sparkle from afar. And there were plenty of pictures of it around for us to pose near.They say that if you are a Colts fan that you should never root for the Patriots. Good thing I'm not a true Colts fan...
