Superbowl Sunday: An Ongoing Tradition

We've been getting together for 6 years now for the Superbowl. From Ankeny to West Des Moines, it's been a fun tradition.

By "we" I mean Emma and I, the writers of Mommy's Recess. We've been new moms, pregnant through Superbowls, Dave was in Iraq one year (and we still got together). It's been fun and the kids always enjoy getting together.

Sean, Liam and Judah...and the stack of Conservative Books. :)


So for this special Mommy's Recess, we've decided to ask Liam (my oldest) a few questions:

Mommy's Recess: How long do you think we've been friends?
Liam: 75 years

Mommy's Recess: How old were you when we became friends?
Liam: I was still in mommy's tummy

Mommy's Recess: What does friend mean?
Liam: Someone you like.

Mommy's Recess: How do you think we met?
Liam: I don't know

Mommy's Recess: What's your first memory of Emma?
Liam: I remember you since I was a baby.

Which is true. Emma and Tim visited baby Liam in the hospital. We actually met volunteering on a campaign back in 2003. We were in each other's wedding party, we visited new babies in the hospital.

So on this Superbowl Sunday we're continuing the tradition. We've got a few more little boys running around between us (we're up to 4) and LOTS more food on the floor; but we wouldn't have it any other way. The food was delicious as always and like always, there's too much. But an overabundance of food, friends and fun is what we are very thankful for. Year after year.
