Super Fun

If you aren't in Dallas right now, you may not be suffering Super Bowl Fever like we are. It's all anyone can talk about, and there's so much Super Bowl stuff going on all around town. We spent this afternoon at the official NFL Super Bowl Experience at the Convention Center. Allegedly they had 800,000 square feet of fun . . . and we walked all 800,000 square feet at least once! Whew - I'm exhausted!

Linc was excited about his armband. He kept calling it his sticker.
The real Lombardi Trophy was on display.
They had a cool shopping area too. Lincoln got a football (to share with Beau, of course), and Daddy got a couple of things too.

We took full advantage of the kids area where Linc could play lots of games. He threw the ball right in the hole! (I'm such a cheerleader off to the side!)
He made a few kicks!

Check out how intently he's listening to the directions of this guy. The directions were to run over to the lockers, put on the jersey and run back to the orange mat. Serious stuff!
The jersey was a little big . . . and hard to run in!!!
We had a new snack - they were handing out bags of Doritos so Linc sampled a few. He liked Cool Ranch best! Also, he needed to try on the 3D glasses like Daddy. So cool!
This was as close as we're getting to the real Super Bowl, but it was lots of fun. My only gripe: the Dallas Convention Center has escalators EVERYWHERE, and Lincoln always wants to ride them. He was constantly running off toward one yelling "up and down". Also, I realize now that wide horizontal stripes might not be the best look for an 8 month pregnant lady . . . my mirror didn't clue me in on that before I left the house. Ah, live and learn!!
