How 'bout them Bears!?!

I do not think this weekend could have been any better. The whole gang got together Saturday night for cake and ice cream and presents for Lee's birthday. Then, we headed off to Dave and Buster's to celebrate some more. It was a little chilly out and we were all a little worried about getting Popi out in the cold air but mom covered him with a big fleece blanket and away he went!

The boys (yes, Jonson, Joseph, Lee, and Russ) each got their own game card and put a hurting on the ticket dispenser. At one point, Russ had the machine pouring out tickets in big piles! Bethany and Mark joined us for the festivities and dinner was delicious.

Yesterday, we spent the day glued to the TV watching the Bears game and, of course, they did not disappoint. We hooked dad up with his voice amplifier and he was really helping out the commentators when he wasn't whooping and hollering, "Go bears!"

Of course, we all decked out in our bears colors for the occasion. Clark bought dad a new blinking/light up Bears cap. Before we went out to see the Bears play in Arizona in the fall, we bought dad a t-shirt, windpants and Bears hat. He swears by wearing his t-shirt and pants everytime they play. The couple of times he didn't, they lost. :)

What a great day, great game, and great fun! Commence the Bears Super Bowl game planning festivities! We're gonna have a big shindig!
