Crash The Super Bowl

What about those Cardinals, huh? Who knew? I'm glad they won, even though I'm not a fan. People need cheering up.
Speaking of getting cheered up, Doritos is having a commercial contest. The winning commercial will be aired during the Super Bowl. Curtis' uber-hilarious brother Ryan and his friend entered a very funny one called "Protect Your Bag". You can view it and VOTE FOR IT by going to www.crashthesuperbowl.com/#/gallery/video/1964. There were almost 2000 entries, but seriously. Only 1 really matters. #1964!!! Vote, Vote, Vote!

Funny (and sad) kid things: On Saturday I had to play for a baptism and didn't have time to make lunch. So I called upon my possessor-of-a-daughter-that-can-cook-super-powers and asked Hallie to make lunch. She is always so happy to test her culinary abilities and was eager to do as I asked. When I got home I asked her what she had made. She said grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup.
"Yum!" I replied.
"Not so yum," she said. "The soup tasted weird, then I realized that I didn't add water. After I added water it still tasted strange."
"Hmmm," I said.
Later as I was desperately trying to get caught up on the dishes (ran 2 loads and still had enough for another one) I came across 2 empty cans, presumably the gross soup. I asked Curtis about the soup. He said it was gross but he didn't want to hurt her feelings, so he ate it.
Oh, fathers (sigh). So sweet and self-sacrificing.
I held up the cans for him to see. They were tomato SAUCE cans, not SOUP cans. We had a little chuckle at the poor girl's expense. I guess we need to have a tutorial about what constitutes a can of of soup.

Then on Sunday, little Zane got lippy to his nursery leader and got kicked out of nursery. I guess he didn't want to listen to the lesson. He just wanted to play with a truck. Well, Amy Rae (that's his nursery leader) doesn't take crap from nobody, even 2 year olds, and that was the end of him. We are going to try to take a Diet Coke with us Sunday to get him back in. Hopefully it will work.

oh my gosh, that is so hilarious about the "soup"! Poor all of them! I can't get to his video though. Cool that he made one.

I was at the store a few days after I read this post and I was passing by the tomato soups and thought of Hallie.. :)
