This time we got super-crafty and went super-geeky. Josh put the Magic Squares game online which allowed people to buy squares several days in advance and put up a monitor in the bar area to replace our poster that always was on the verge of falling down. (sorry no photos you’ll just have to believe me).
Mandy and Mark sewed a felt field to go over our buffet table (AKA our covered up shuffleboard).
I made the Cardinal and Steelers logos out of felt for the end zones.
I was actually so impressed with myself I started to brainstorm ways to make money off my felt crafting skill I had no idea I possessed. Unfortunately I think it falls in the same skill category as repairing nitrate film and giving cats pills – very handy skill when you need it, but not really a big money maker.
I also made a football cake which collapsed in the center while it was baking and stuck to the pan so much the top layer ripped off. Gotta love frosting!!
Elsie’s nanny and our neighbor Mindy brought over dozens of 3-D glasses so everyone could enjoy the 3-D commercials during halftime.
Overall, a good time had by all!
Your cake is gorgeous and I am impressed with your felt crafting skills. Your party should be published. Did Saffie get a trmap, or was that Elsie’s? How’s my little walker???
