Superbowl Sunday

I just wanted to assure all of you that yes, in fact, we are still alive. We're doing quite well, but we're busy... and not with the kinds of activities that generate fun photo opportunities. (Oh, National Boards, how I loathe thee!)

That's right. I've been heavily involved in career-oriented navel gazing. But I did take a break to do Superbowl Sunday with the family. Mike and I joined my parents at their house. My brother's family was there, too.

It's a good thing I'm not a die-hard football fan... because I barely got to watch the game! Instead, I was chasing after nephews and nieces. Everyone was playing with blocks, puzzles, and potato heads. And the fact that they're tall enough to climb in the toy box and reach Grandma's spatula drawer? Good, good times.

(Click on the collages to make them bigger!)


Of course, the adults had a lovely time as well. My brother was thrilled to have a chance to watch the game. He may have been a little less thrilled about our birthday present for L :) It was a brand new Fancy Nancy book ("Way to go, Katie. It's got pink glitter on the cover." That's right, bro. I do what I can.)

The food, as always, was fabulous. And Mom made too much potato salad (shocker, I know).

All in all, it was lovely to spend a day with family!
