Winning On Super Bowl Sunday

 I grew up watching football...

I was a cheerleader...

 so cheering at football games was a big part of my life for as long as I can remember.

When I got married, 

the hubs was not into football and I drifted away from watching it.

He took the boys to a couple Giants games, I didn't go.

A few years back I started watching it again on television and I am a die hard fan again.

My team...Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, I love everything about them.

I enjoy Patrick's story, on and off the field.

He is so kind, humble, loyal, supportive and he married his high school sweetheart.

He has a really positive personality! 

And come on...the way this guy plays football, unique and so amazing,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank him for being alive...

and for choosing football over baseball.

I always get such a thrill seeing the American Flag!

The snacks are just as important as the game...well, almost!

Cheesy Spinach and Artichoke Bread Ring Dip

Warm & Cheesy Bacon Dip For Potato Chips

I only use 8 ounces of sour cream and add 1 cup of mayonnaise,

I do not add the cream cheese.

And unless you live on Mars, you know the Chiefs won 38 - 35,

it was a very exciting game and the Eagles gave us a real run for our money!

Howe Street Beach In Winter

Or is it winter?

Howe Street Beach in Bay Head...

my favorite beach, the one we visit all the time, the one that has the shell art for every holiday.

On February 10th, we had another warm day, full sun, 60 degrees.

I wanted to "sea" the ocean and check out the shell art for Valentines Day.

We stopped for a few minutes and got to see the 8 foot waves, all the surfers,

and the shell art I shared pictures of yesterday.

But is it really winter, it has been so incredibly mild...

cold days are 45+ degrees, that's winter in New Jersey this year and I'll take it.

These gulls were small, they flew in a flock...a pattern I had never seen before.

- the waves of the sea help me to get back to me -
