I come from a long line of football fanatics. I have so many happy memories of spending Sunday afternoons in front of the TV, surrounded by cousins, aunts and uncles watching the games. And when it was all over we ordered in Chinese food for everyone. Then there were the freezing cold Sundays spent watching the game from the stadium with my father, uncle and brother. I couldn't drink enough hot chocolate to keep me warm and would be shivering hours after returning home.
Things are so different now with everyone spread out across the country and having to take my daughters to their various activities and lessons all weekend long and planning for the week ahead. But there are some traditions I want to pass on. So this Sunday, we got tickets for the game, and are going to have a huge tailgate party beforehand. I ordered the grilling pack from Omaha Steaks so there'll be something for everyone, steaks, hot dogs and burgers for all. We got a mini weber grill and charcoal from Target Plus some other treats from Dean and DeLuca. MyM&Ms.com has customized M&M's for our team so I bought a bag for everyone.
Of course the kids had to have their own team jerseys to wear to the game (so did my husband). I'm just going to make sure I'm nice and toasty in my new UGGs and jacket and scarf from Brooks Brothers).
When the game is over and our team victorious, we're all going out for Chinese Food (Restaurant.com $25 for $8).
