Having a Super week!



Most, if not all of my readers know I live in Indianapolis.

Most, if not all of my readers know that next weekend in Indianapolis, a very large event is taking place.

Yes, the Super Bowl is taking place in our great city on Sunday.  Preparations have been in the works for several years, and from what I've heard and read in the paper, our city has done a fantastic job of putting everything together.  I had no idea how many events and celebrations happen in the week leading up to the Super Bowl.  We've made some last minute plans to experience the festivities first hand.  No, we're not spending thousands of dollars to watch the game at Lucas Oil Field.  But we are going to head downtown tonight, just Jonathan and me, to participate in the chaos revelry.  I've lined up a babysitter (just!) and we'll head downtown for dinner.  Hopefully.  The restaurants are going to be crazy.  There's live music (free), plus endless people watching (free) and maybe we'll even see someone famous!  I'm excited about it.  Add to that the warming trend we're experiencing; it should be a comfortable, fun night! 

Jonathan has also decided to splurge and take the boys to the NFL Experience tomorrow.  We'll pull Ethan out of school a little early and the three of them will head downtown to have some fun pretending to be professional football players.  Or something.  I'm not quite sure what it is.  But at $20 per kid, it better be fun!!  Jonathan will get in free because he's working security at the NFL Experience all weekend.  Yippee! 

Which reminds me, we're not hosting a Super Bowl party this year, in case anyone was wondering.  Enjoy the game: Go Giants!!!

  1. It was fun running into you down by the circle! Wish we could have stayed around longer- it was such a fun atmosphere. Yesterday at NFL experience, kids could get in for half price if they wore some Colts gear. Not sure if that's true for today, but it's worth a shot.

    1. Darcy, thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, we purchased our tickets in advance through Ticketmaster. We won't be getting a refund for wearing Colts gear, I'm sure! Oh well. At least the boys won't have to wait in line for tickets. :)
