Yes, I just did a post talking about the meatballs Trevor made for the super bowl party we went to, but I didn't get around to do doing a post about the party itself. I feel like because the super bowl will always be on my birthday weekend, if not my birthday, Trevor will always try to make the super bowl parties him and his friends do every year also count as my birthday party, haha. It has been this way ever since we started dating. Trevor threw a birthday party for me (which was also a super bowl party...haha).
A picture of me on my 20th Birthday, at the Super Bowl/Birthday Party Trevor threw for me :)
When I pointed out to Trevor that I think his Super Bowl Parties and adding a cake to them, then calling it my birthday party seems like a cop out. He rebutted with, "Well do you really think you could get that many people to come to an actual birthday party for you?!" haha, he was joking of course :) ....right? Anyways, on our way to the Super Bowl party Trevor told me that he had $5 for me to bet on the game if I wanted. I asked him why would we gamble money on something like football stats when we don't know much about about football. Apparently Trevor and his friends wanted to make the game more interesting and exciting for them, and I was not happy that he was wasting our money on something stupid like a bet. I had decided I wasn't going to participate, but when I got there everyone was doing it (peer pressure right? haha) So I decided to join in and throw away $5 to make the game a little more exciting. They split it it into two different pools, one for the score and some stats for the first half, and then the final score who would win, and some stats for the second half. Well I won BOTH pots! HA! The girl giving Trevor a hard time about gambling, and wasting money, and I won all of it. I guess watching my brother's football games throughout high school and college paid off :)
Do you think we ate enough food? This was just part of it...
Trevor surprised me with Daisey candles, my favorite flower :) |
Trevor had to lay down because he ate too much, hehe :)
P.S. Here are some interesting facts about the super bowl commercials that pertain to Utahans, and any Mormons reading this.

I have to say my favorite commercial was the Doritos licking the fingers one.... what about you guys?
my favorite was the child darth vader one! by far the best commercial! ;)
ReplyDeleteThe Doritos finger one, pug one, and Darth Vader one were my favs. The livingsocial one was pretty funny too.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a good bday :)
Fun pictures! I love all the food in the pictures haha probably cause I haven't had breakfast yet!!
ReplyDeleteI know the guys who made the Doritios commercial. They are hysterical! That one was my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI would seriously complain if I had to share my birthday with a load of football players ha!
ReplyDeleteMy friend's bday is towards the end of January, so her whole family does the same Super Bowl/birthday joint party.. it makes for quite a fun night!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great night!!! SO much food :D
ReplyDeleteI like football, so I don't know how I would feel celebrating my birthday along with superbowl sunday... probably gypped! BUT, I can totally see my husband saying the SAME THING :) Looks like you guys had a blast!
ReplyDeleteIt's Kirby!! I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out.. ha :)
ReplyDeleteHow come there is no picture of the birthday girl at the Superbowl party? I think you should add one. I liked the Dorito's licking the finger commercial and the little kid Dark Vader one. Those were my favorites.
ReplyDeleteI would never imagine seeing K.C. Clyde in a beer commercial...
ReplyDeleteKirby is in a Taco Bell commercial as well. Barbacoa.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I both laughed when we saw the guy from Best Two Years in a beer commercial as well!
red velvet!!! lucky you :)
