Superbowl and Stuff

While the outcome of the Superbowl isn't what we hoped, we sure had fun celebrating with our little family at home. The Chiefs lost... by a lot... It was probably their worst game of the season. For us though, it's been something fun to bring us together as a family. We made sliders and cookies with red and yellow M&Ms. The kids celebrated at school each day with a different theme (Mahomes Monday, Tropical Tuesday, etc.), so they really got into it too. We're already looking forward to next season... Go Chiefs! 

Bobby met the KC Wolf (again!) at work

Leslie made a Patrick Mahomes headband at school

Last weekend we indulged in a Patrick Mahomes inspired cupcake

In other news, it's cold - really, really cold here. The high today is 14, the warmest of the next 7 days. BRRRR! In a typical Midwest temperature pattern, it was near 60 a few days ago. We wanted to take advantage of the warmer days so we checked out the newly opened park just minutes from our house (which also has a coffee shop within walking distance!). It's awesome! The kids loved it. It has an area for both big kids and toddlers. We're looking forward to going there more once the weather warms up again. 

Most days though, we hang around home. The kids are getting really good at chess. Leslie has legitimately beat Bobby a few times, and they ask to play with him all the time. If Leslie can catch Daniel in the right mood, the two of them will play together. 

They even play chess on their tablets

Bobby has also taken up a new hobby... french braiding! I was really impressed with his first attempt with Leslie. I had him do my hair too! That Daddy... he's always up for learning something new!
