The first Saturday
of February vacation...

The One Where the Patriots Win Their Sixth Superbowl!

It is 10:10 PM on Sunday February 3rd and the Patriots have made history (and tied it, too). The Patriots won Superbowl 53 13 -3 over the Rams 17 years to the day they won their first one against the Rams.


If was a tough defensive game with the score tied at 3 going into the 4th quarter. However, an amazing series of catches by Edelman and Gronkowski, with a TD run by Michel put them on top and a Gostkowski field goal sealed the deal.


This means the Pats - the goof troop of teams when I was a kid - are tied with the Steelers for the most Super Bowls of all time.


 AMAZING!

Congratulations Super Bowl Champions New England Patriots

 

The One With Kiff's First Wiinter Flag Football

Today marked Kiff's first winter flag football game in Toppsfield. We were looking forward to checking out the new season in a new league.

It did not disappoint. I am helping out again with the team - which is always fun - and had a blast!


We were not too sure what to expect because we learned there are some players new to flag. However, the team did an amazing job, scoring more than 60 points in the first game....right on the eve of Super Bowl 53 between the Pats and Rams.


A job well done. Onto game 2

The One With Groundhog's Day

Today was Groundhog's Day. As with our typical tradition, we watched Groundhog's Day (after participating in Ice Cream for Breakfast Day as well as Kiff's first winter flag football game). 

The Groundhog did not see his shadow - as shown as in the clip below - indicating winter is almost over.  Nice!

The One With Ice Cream For Breakfast

Today was yet another amazing Ice Cream For Breakfast Day. And, for the fifth year in a row, we partook of the event by going to Cherry Hill. This time, we learned to go a little early, leaving at 7:40 for the 8:00 event.

Though we were hardly the only ones there - in fact there were about 30 people waiting when we arrived, we were still standing in line much shorter than normal.

Our choices for this occasion.

Bri - Cinnamon Bun
Emmie - Coffee and Donut
Chiff - Fudge (for Bruins)
Me - Maple and Bacon


Thanks again to Cherry Hill for another special event!
