Super Bowl Feb 1 2009

The final score is set and the Steelers came out ahead this year. What a game between Arizona and Pittsburgh! Did you know that last year's game was won in the final 35 seconds also? The Super Bowl was held here in Tampa and we got to enjoy the NFL Experience with Dad, Pops, and Uncle Rob. Mateusz and Mom worked really hard at pushing the horses (of course Mom was the only one winded after 2 tries). Watch the video - Te was so happy and wanted to go faster.
Mateusz and Pops ran a football drill course and Te's favorite part was jumping on the mats at the end. Pops gave him great coaching throughout the entire day from kicking to running and Mom, Dad and Uncle Rob were his biggest cheerleaders. We also took turns attempting to kick a "final point" field goal. Well - the thing I dreaded the most was missing the point in front of everyone. Guess who fell short of the posts. Yup - me. Guess who made it through - yup - Daddy. Guess who hasn't stopped talking about it. Right again - Daddy. He'll be smiling until the end of time talking about his "moment". I think he is secretly waiting for the scouts to call any day since he kicked it so hard. Not sure if he could get to the phone to answer it, though, since he pulled a hamstring kicking the ball. Tough getting older. My "moment" came when I got to be the ham that I am and dance an end zone dance. It was really fun to say the least. That night we all went to watch the Tampa Lightning and Philadelphia Flyers play some hockey. Bad ending to that game - the Flyers beat the Lightning up! It was pretty cool after the game seeing Tampa lit up for the Super Bowl and seeing all the parties set up in town. Can't wait for another game to be played here!
