We found out a couple of weeks ago that Marshall was headed to the Beef O'Bradys Bowl in St. Petersburg, FL to play FIU on Tuesday night. Jim and I wanted to hop on the first plane out and take the family with us to the game. Jim checked the flights and hotel arrangements, but.......between work schedules and school schedules and vacation days left, and it was so close to CHRISTmas.....we weren't going to be able to work it out.
So, we did the next best thing....we had a Bowl Party!
We were all here (except for Gus ~ if we had decided to go, we were getting him a ticket and meeting him in Florida).
Everyone wore their Marshall attire....
We used our Marshall dinnerware along with our CHRISTmas dinnerware....
We had lots of good food.....cheese fries, wings, BBQ smokies, chips and salsa, and party mix along with an assortment of candy.
Tyler fried the bacon for the fries (while he talked on the phone ~ of course ~ ha!).
Gidget had a good time at Honey's house too! She loves party mix!
Then it was time for the BIG game!!!!!!!!
The game was intense....lots of yelling....lots of booing.....but, in the end......
Marshall was the
WINNER!
We had such a good time ~ always much better when we win :)
Next year though, if Marshall goes to a bowl game (especially to a warm, southern state) we are so going! Jim said so....
